Thrilled to have had Pranavi Vakkala, a recent SD high school grad, intern in my lab this summer! At our going away lunch, we gifted her a signed x-ray film from her 1st western blot. She is off to NYU for neuroscience undergrad & we wish her all the best!
I benefited from the k99 eligibility timeline. Coming from smaller phd lab/program, took me >2 yrs at PD start to develop a research vision. I think we should expand the eligibility window, giving scientists flexibility to take risk & develop the many skills needed for academia
