Also PhD and PD periods are super hard on one's mental and physical capacities. There is huge instability. You're constantly expected to fight for having a funding in order to do your job but also live. That is insane. That is an inhumane system to continue. Nobody can be a genius under that kind of pressure. There is a reason of brain drain from academia.

Currently in my 3-hour biostatistics class while making this post. I want to skip this class since it's just so much easier to self-study than listen to our prof.

Would anyone like to hear some animal facts? No? Well you're getting them anyway.
First off,spectacled flying foxes. Aka these guys.
Tumblr media
They are 22 to 25 centimeters long and weigh 1000 grams. They mostly eat oranges,mangoes,bananas,figs,pears,and avocadoes. Also they can live up to 30 years. Did you know that they are good swimmers? Well you know now. They also use their wings as fans when it's hot out.
The next animal on this list is the eagle owl.
Tumblr media
These bad boys are 58 to 71 centimeters long and weigh 2.7 kilograms. They mostly eat voles,rats,rabbits,herons,fish,and insects. Also they can live up to 60 years. Eagle owls are nocturnal which means they are usually active at night. They can be found in the taiga,farmlands,steppes,semi-arid areas,and grasslands.
The third animal on this list is the fennec fox.
Tumblr media
They are 35 to 40 centimeters long and weigh 1.6 kilograms. They mostly eat grasshoppers,locusts,small rodents,birds,and eggs. Also they can live up to 11 years. Did you know that when startled they can produce a musky smell from the tip of their tail? It's not the most pleasant of facts but you gotta deal with it anyway. And they also have extra fur on their feet to keep them cold when it's hot and hot when it's cold.
The fourth animal on this list is kangaroos.
Tumblr media
They can grow to be 3 to 8 feet tall and weigh 47 kilograms. They mostly eat grasses,shrubs,leaves,moss,fruit,and flowering plants. Also they can live up to 27 years. Did you know that kangaroos are left handed? Well you know now. They're also known to drown their enemies. You'd best not mess with a kangaroo knowing that they are not afraid to back down from a fight.
And last but not least,red pandas.
Tumblr media
They are 56 to 62 centimeters long and weigh 3.7 kilograms. They mostly eat bamboo,acorns,berries,grasses,grubs,mice,lizards,chicks,and eggs. Also they can live up to 13 years. They secrete a waxy substance from their tails,which they use to mark their territory. And they can also climb trees.

Poorly describe an animal and I'll draw it
(Don't say what animal it is, not in the tags either)

Trying to focus. I'm currently studying Oncology and Hematology in a post graduated course. It's been really nice to review those subjects I already study in college.
Reinstalled Forest and hope to be more consistent with my studies.

In order to make great discoveries and come up with exciting ideas you need to have peace and quite. You need to have a slow pace to digest and go over the details. In current academic climate that isn't possible but also it is frowned upon. I think we'll be hearing more cases like Stanford President's fake papers and data in the near future.

The Lineage & Differentiation of Human Blood Cells
Tumblr media
All blood cells originate from a hematopoietic stem cell known as a Hemocytoblast. Through multiple rounds of differentiation, this Hemocytoblast becomes erythrocytes, lymphocytes, thrombocytes, and every other type of blood cell that we know of.

Not bad...
Tumblr media
Almost 80 citations of my research articles in the last year... I would say it’s not bad. It eases a bit my feeling of “I don’t know what I am doing here!” that I sometimes have.
