"I enjoy the research assistant experience. First, this is a good chance for me to build the ability of self learning, take initiative, time management skill, creative thinking and problem solving. Second, during the five years PhD study, I also learned the spirit of teamwork and the skills of communication. This is an experience of self improvement."
"Working at IBBR, I have come to the realization that I may need multiple projects going at the same time. Laboratory work here, while entertaining, have large waiting times which make for a tension due to feeling of not being productive. Then again, the better you are at researching, the better you are able to fill in those wait times, and at IBBR, the better you enjoy the freedom to research whatever your heart desires."
