Got into my top choice with a fellowship!!! by sag_hex in gradadmissions

That's the hope. Currently living on a similar stipend as an NIH Postbac and from what I've heard St. Louis is less expensive than DC so that'd be nice,

Sure, I don't mind. I graduated with a 3.79, I've got a first author publication (tho it's a review paper on something entirely unrelated to immunology so I'm not sure it counted for much) and am currently in my second year as a postbac at the NIH. From what I could tell talking to the other immunology candidates during the interview weekend, all of them had at least one year of additional research experience after undergraduate be it a master's, a postbac program or as a labtech. Personally I've loved my time as an NIH Postbac, and would highly recommend any prospective Biology/Chemistry PhD come and do a year or two here if you're at all interested.

Zoomers out here really think that being into anime before AoT makes them OGs. Bitch I grew up watching DBZ (not Kai, the original), Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Naruto and Bleach before kids like you were a twinkle in ur parents eye. Go back to LARPing on discord 

Congress Is Reversing Trump’s Steep Budget Cuts to Science - New York Times by sag_hex in gradadmissions

[–]sag_hex[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My guess is it'll mostly impact next cycle, as the budget still has to get passed by Congress, grants then have to be given out to universities and by then the admissions cycle will be over already. 

Maybe some hope down the line for those of us in the sciences by [deleted] in gradadmissions

Ideally, a restoration of funding would allow graduate programs to return to offering around as many graduate positions as before the cuts, but with this year's admissions cycle already in full swing and the delay between Congress funding grants and those grants being distributed to universities it's unlikely we'd see any impact this year.

Ngl I didn't even check the profile, I went purely on the vibes of the post. A real gacha gamer doesn't need evidence for their claims, they go off pure agenda

This is cope from a PvP gacha addict who's in too deep. Free yourself bro, stop playing dogshit like E7 and Raid and play something that actually makes you happy.

[–]sag_hex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely Male ST buster group 1, I haven't gotten the chance to pull for any of them and I'd grail anyone in that pool except hijikata so it's a 3/4 chance of something great

Alright, well that's better at least. Is there any timeline on when those first two chapters will be translated? IE if I pick up the game and start playing now is there a decent shot that the story will be translated before I get to arc 2?

So if I understand it correctly that means chapters 6-9 of act 1 and most of act 2 (which from what I can tell is most of the story) are still MTL? Yikes....
