Just started back to college for Biology. Hoping to go into microbiology and focus on virology, mycology, or bacteriology. Do you enjoy what you do? Are you doing more field work or lab research?
Way more lab research than the field, I put the ecology section in my PhD proposal only because I wanted to go to the woods and that aspect of fungal Bioluminescence has not been studied since the 1980s... someone had to do it why not me, I like the woods. But yeah I really like what I am doing, I like my subject area, and I am so close to finding the genes (assuming the next few things go as expected, fingers crossed). Right now I am procrastinating from watching the field ecology videos I have collected, over the past year. I am actually taking a week off from wet-lab to get the ecology data annotation finished, I like collecting the ecology data, I do not like reviewing it...
Awesome, here's hoping it goes well for you! Hopefully, I'll be able to share your passion in a few years!
Much appreciate the advice. I haven't even gotten to the phase where I would be looking at labs. Just finished my first semester.
