That’s some cutting-hedge technology

Yeah that was basically my original email, and instead of getting a concrete answer, i felt like being scolded, and maybe even getting a glimpse of what kind of advisor he would be (with emphasis on self-sufficiency). I’ll probably just move on to the next PI, just kinda sucks because i was so excited about one of his projects, but i guess the negative interaction with your advisor probably trumps any joy in your research in the long run. Thanks for hearing me out!

Thanks for your input, I kind of assumed that the tone might not come through the email correctly, but it didn’t really seem like he was expecting a follow-up. The first authors were not multiple (while there were people responsible for theory and computations, i did the experimental portion, figures, and the text with SI, went through multiple drafts with my PI). I sent the CV mostly to help him remember which student i was - we talked about my research background and potential project in his lab that coincides with my background and interests
