Beth Eyre - The highs and lows of scientific research

Beth Eyre - The highs and lows of scientific research

Beth Eyre, narrates her blog written for NIHR Dementia Researcher.

PhDs are hard. And the last couple of months of Beths PhD have been exceptionally challenging. A few months ago, she was in the final stages of checking her manuscript that she had been working on for almost a year. Checking through the code to ensure that everything was working correctly and her stomach sank. When she realised she'd forgotten to run a piece of important code – which now meant that she would need to re run all her analysis, create new figures and redo the statistics – a mammoth job on top of all her scheduled experiments. So, in today’s blog Beth gives you an insight into the highs and lows of scientific research – from her perspective as a third year PhD student.
