How to make your advisor happy:
- don’t argue
- immediately do whatever s/he tells you to
- work as much as humanly possible
- get tons of results
How to be a good scientist:
- argue back; think about whether ideas make sense
- do what makes sense to do next, even if it’s not what your advisor said
- work hard, but in a way that’s sustainable and keeps you happy and healthy
- get lots (maybe not tons) of deliberately-targeted results
Of course, a
sane advisor will want the latter.

The good news is that smiling (and being positive) will both make your advisor happy AND make you a good scientist.

Our BBS program’s magazine had an advice column. One of them read: “What does my advisor want?” “Tenure and for you to work 24 hours a day. So get back to lab.”

When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get three e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Thank you!

Hey would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a hard time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
