Links of Interest

By admin | June 13, 2006

I’ve come across some interesting posts over the past few days, and thought I would share:

Retrospectacle, written by a PhD candidate in neuroscience at the University of Michigan, has a great primer on how to get into a good graduate school in the sciences. As an undergraduate who is planning to pursue graduate work after graduation, this speaks my language.

I was struck by the irony of the unforgettable story of a scientist watching a drug that he helped develop save his son’s life.

And finally, I couldn’t help but read through the New York TImes article, “The Student: Forgive Us Our Student Debts” [registration required].
