How to be a good graduate student? Li Jin Fudan University/CAS-MPG Institute of Computational Biology
What should be the goals? • To receive higher education and to be more knowledgeable • To achieve higher social status • To make your family proud • To find a better job • To be wealthy • To make more contribution to the society • To save the world • To do something you really really really really really like
Society University Family Professor Me
What does a graduate student should achieve? • Learn to be a good scientist • Independent thinking • Independent research capability • Effective communication/presentation • Reasonable writing skills • Laboratory skills • Grantsmanship: Planning, design, and budget preparation • People skills • Organizing skills
What does a university/institute want? • Tuition • Resources from government/agency • Labors • Future scholars!
What does a professor want? • Teaching is required • ‘Cheap’ labors • Young and active brains • Future helpers/followers • Future colleagues
What do I want? • Independent researchers • Big brains with some hands • Better scholars • Mature/Well-rounded • Vision and paying attention to BBQ • Good common sense • Excellent logic • Effective communicators
What is science? • Falsifiable • Hypothesis driven • Identify/develop testable hypothesis • Know the field/know the history
A Good Scientist • Brains versus hands • Profession versus occupation • Maturity • Importance of collaboration • Resourceful • Grantsmanship
My student career • 81-85 Fudan undergraduate • 85-87 Fudan graduate • 88-90 University of Texas – CDPG • 90-94 University of Texas – Houston • 94-96 Stanford U • 97- Faculty
GSBS, UT • Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences • Founded in 1972 • 2 dozen interdisciplinary programs • 400 faculties/<400 students • Allow switch program freely • Four core courses: quantitative, system, cell biology, biochemistry/mol biol. • Train top researchers who can survive fierce competition
What are the lessons at UT? • Positive • A lot of readings/discussions/seminars • Excellent program: Breadth and depth • Training for faculty career • Negative • Not enough opportunities to interact with top researchers • Narrow-minded
Course work • Core courses: didactic + research • Core course + Specialty courses
Quality Controls • Admission • Course work • Qualifying exams (written + oral) • Defense • Committees: • Advisory Committee • Exam Committee • Supervisory Committee
What I leant at Stanford? • Many top researchers/talents • Excellent atmosphere • Not well-structured: good for postdocs but may not be good for students
Presentation • Very very important • Practice and training are important • Anybody can be a good presenter
Attending meetings • Very important and wonderful opportunity • Don’t waste your time to do sight-seeing • Know people and their research • Make yourself known • Sense the art of science and feel the future • Networking
Seminar • Ask stupid questions. • If you don’t think you are stupid, then you are not stupid.
Writing • One of the most important skills in research • Papers • Grant proposals
How to use your supervisor • Knowledge • Experience • Resource
Where are frontiers? • Those defined by others • Those defined by yourselves • How to find frontiers?
How to write a good manuscript? • Think before you write • Prepare an outline/story line • Fill the outline with ‘messages’ • Logic is important: good story vs bad story • Write clearly/use short sentences • Be explicit as much as you can • Good discussion is important
How to be creative? • Use your common sense • Practice your brain • Make mistakes and learn from it • Jot down your thoughts (good or bad)
