what are we doing?!!!!!!

Soooooo......Sarah and I have decided to start a blog focusing on the trials and tribulations of being a young researcher in the big bad world of academia!!!!!! We wanted to see if anyone else out there wanted to share their thoughts, good news, frustations, queries and anything just about anything else we are going through!

Sadie B and I met at the university of goodtimes, studying Chemistry. Out of all of our friends, we are the most suprised that its been us two who have wanted to stay in research. Personally i absolutely love what i do and cant imagine going into industry at all.

We are both young fun loving gals, finishing our PhD's, starting Post Docs and learning the ways of our new careers. COME HELP US!!!!!!!!!

We'll both contribute, talking about specific areas of our sciences, or science in general, science in the news and science in modern society. We'll talk about papers and grant proposals and conferences and debates and jobs and anything really that takes our fancy.

Our friend Douglas will be helping us out time to time too, thank you!!!!!

So here we go............ <3
