I now see why "kidnapped" is in quotes.

Fuck..... What a fucking awful situation.

Chemo treats many disorders that requires the extermination of cells that are not functioning correctly. It's hard to target those cells in specific, and be safe, so we kill lots and lots and lots instead. The dream would be direct targeting of those cells but it's just not feasible right now

I think it's bull shit to expect leaders to not have preference. Perfectly acceptable to say what you did. You like the tacos...

I get what you were saying but at the same time that sort of business charade is such a nonsense thing nowadays. Any human being is allowed to have an opinion and share it as long as it's not hateful or harmful to another individual person

This is the advice I needed to hear as I prepare for my grad school applications. I'm shooting pretty damn high regarding schools, and am technically in a different field (bioinformatics // computational biology // machine learning), but I think your sentiment rings true regardless of an infinite parameter space.

I've thought about this a lot, whether to take a small step back and focus more on raw fundamentals. It is difficult to conceptualize, since I think a doctorate in a more raw subject matter (data science, mathematics, algorithms) is just going to be inherently more difficult than a doctorate in something that has a very clear application (computational biology). I don't know. Maybe that's for me to figure out along the way.

Thanks
