In many circles, grad school has become synonymous with suffering. Yet, this struggle is treated as a right of passage. But should it be? If the point of graduate school is to teach you to develop independence and analytical thought in your field, then why do so many of our stories center around personal conflicts with colleagues or mentors, or feeling like we have to "sell our soul" to be successful?
This book will be all about the struggles we face in grad school that we never talk about. Life balance. Project ownership. Conflicts with mentors or colleagues. Lab bullying. etc. Let's save the next generation of graduate students for going through the same things!
