10 questions · two minutes

1. Your PCR shows no bands on the gel, although the positive control worked last week. How do you troubleshoot?

2. How do you feel about spending hours at the bench pipetting tiny volumes with great precision?

3. You read a new paper describing gene editing in a cell line. What do you focus on?

4. Which research question attracts you most?

5. You need to analyse RNA sequencing data from your experiment. How do you approach it?

6. The programme is taught in English, and you’ll work in labs and journal clubs with students from many countries. How do you feel about that?

7. Your result contradicts your supervisor’s hypothesis. What do you do?

8. How do you feel about writing a Master’s thesis based on months of your own lab experiments?

⇑Definitions and quotes

Biology
Biology is the natural science that involves the study of life and living organisms, including their physical structure, chemical composition, function, development and evolution. Modern biology is a vast field, composed of many branches. Despite the broad scope and the complexity of the science, there are certain unifying concepts that consolidate it into a single, coherent field. Biology recognizes the cell as the basic unit of life, genes as the basic unit of heredity, and evolution as the engine that propels the creation of new species. Living organisms are open systems that survive by transforming energy and decreasing their local entropy to maintain a stable and vital condition defined as homeostasis. See glossary of biology.
Biology
No biologist today would think of submitting a paper entitled "New evidence for evolution;" it simply has not been an issue for a century.
Douglas J. Futuyma, Evolutionary Biology, 2nd ed., 1986, Sinauer Associates, p. 15
Biology
The ultimate aim of the modern movement in biology is in fact to explain all biology in terms of physics and chemistry.
Francis Crick (1966) Of Molecules and Men. p. 10.
Biology
Biology is Engineering.
Daniel Dennett (1995) Darwin's Dangerous Idea
