“The PhD stipend is $33,511 … well below minimum wage of $47,627”
“Universities can raise the stipend to a maximum of $52,352, but a ACGR survey found none have done so. The highest stipend is just over $40,000 … with the average at $34,244.”

Yesterday, my supplementary file was vanished from my external hard drive. Weeks of work gone?
Tried everything—nothing. Then, this fix saved me:
1.Open CMD (Win + R → cmd → Enter)
2.Run: chkdsk X: /f
3. If still missing: attrib -h -r -s /s /d X:\*.*
BOOM—file restored! Try this first!
Making DNA dance in the lab!
In the middle of an exciting PCR run for guppy muscle telomere length measurement. Telomeres may be tiny, but they hold massive secrets about life and longevity. Science is not just a profession; it’s a journey of curiosity and discovery 🐟
Two newly described mollusc species, named Punk ferox and Emo vorticaudum, indicate that early molluscs were more diverse than previously thought. The spiky, wormlike fossils were found in Herefordshire in England, and date to around 430 million years ago.
