Carly Sagan on Nostr: Things aren’t going so hot for me. My advisor wants me to find another advisor. ...
Things aren’t going so hot for me. My advisor wants me to find another advisor. I’d prefer a female physics advisor but of course there are none. I knew I was going to have issues w/ this advisor when I was telling him about my space weather mitigation plans & he said no one is going to fund or work on this bc it isn’t sexy. (Wtf?) Does everyone choose their respective field/science/career based on sexiness? Plz tell me this is delusional. It would help, k, thx.
