I like it

So, it sounds like "thinking independently" beyond the text is important. This makes sense, as physics is a pretty creative subject once you get past the technical stuff

So I made a previous post regarding developing sufficient quantitative background to go into a field that's effectively applied physics (or "theoretical biophysics" but that just sounds a bit ridiculous).I think I can rephrase my issue as not one of choosing a better major, but lacking a certain...

I see. I get the general gist of "stay in your wheelhouse" but this is a bit difficult as my EE programs didn't focus on the specifics that would normally make EE fit well with Comp Neuro. However I do get the idea of sticking to one's guns. Recommendation on whether I should work in a more...

My current research experience is computational and involves neuroscience but isn't in the vain of research currently dominating mainstream comp neuro. I came to the conclusion by hunting down every single lab I would love to do grad studies in and looking at the background of the PIs and grad...

So you're saying I'm going to win the Nobel?

Hi all, I'm going to graduate this May with a degree in Electrical Engineering. While I've done pretty well, my passion was never in EE and I'd like to aim for graduate school in Computational Neuroscience. When I look at the background and methodology employed by many favorite (current)...
