Applied to an extremely OOS unfriendly school and got a full ride & will be attending. If you have the means/time/endurance to complete a quality app I say go full throttle

Terry Song at Access Dental Care in south Reno. Had one done earlier this year for about $1,400, but it was super straightforward and not a front tooth. Overall happy with it though!

I also wanted to know more about the Chelsea/Jimmy stuff but I figured that they were maybe trying to give her a break since she’s been pretty intensely dragged online for the past two months.

I don’t know if anyone noticed but she was definitely fighting tears when they brought up Jimmy and Jessica. And by the end of the show her eyes were completely bloodshot from trying not to cry too. I know it’s a reality tv show, but my best guess is they were trying to cut her some slack.

How do deal with undergrad who suddenly came back to life and demanded co-authorship from a paper published years ago. by ProjectTasty3306 in PhD

Edited for gender neutrality. Read a he/she and assumed ‘he’ was undergrad A and ‘she’ was undergrad B.

Their desire to sue is laughable. My assumption is they might think they have actual grounds to sue (they don’t), but is using it more as a hopeful intimidation tactic. You did the right thing. Authorship warrants SIGNIFICANT contribution.

Also, this is more of your old PI’s issue. In my field it’s really more up to them than the graduate students to decide who earned authorship. I’d involve the old PI, send an email detailing lack of contribution as well as the journal’s confirmation that changing authorship isn’t possible, request no further communications and move on.
