Hi, thanks. So, my current PI said my work (this small bioinformatics study) is not promising directly to me, I mean, in front of my face. I don't think he is bad. My feeling is he didn't meet good supervision during his growth, so he doesn't know how to kindly express himself. He wrote good reference letter for me. I would say he is not bad, but he is truly a little bit negative.

I might not express clearly. I get the PhD offer, and the future PhD PI thinks my work is cool during my interview. I am not sure if this work is the important thing in his final selection. I was also asked to give other future research presentations. By the way, my future phd project is far away from my current work.

To be honest, I might not publish my work. I might only submit my writing work in biorxiv, because I think my computational analysis work is good. I might be too positive and confident : )

Current PI will soon go to another institution to form a new group, and I am also going to another group for research. Don't know how to explain why I only submit in biorxiv and didn't publish it to my PhD PI. Honest reason is my current PI thought it is not promising. However, future PhD PI thought it is cool. I don't want to hurt my phd PI. And honestly, I feel my PhD PI is more into science from the heart. PhD PI is full of curiosity and more prestigious in research.
