ErrantScience

Hello 🙂 So this post is a behind the scenes chat about at why the site (and the socials) have been so quiet recently.

Writing is an unavoidable part of research.

This week, I had to fix some equipment.

If you had told me while I was doing my undergrad degree that a key skill in research was poster making, I would have assumed you were making a rather strange arts and crafts-related joke.

Like most young overenthusiastic naive academics, my first academic paper was rejected.

It is hard to explain just how fast technology has developed and changed modern times compared to history.

Science is not getting cheaper.

Now, it may be hard to imagine, but there was a world before Google and looking up literally everything on a search engine.

We meant to share this sooner, but time really got away from us.

Lab work is a collaborative effort.
