Working strange hours and failed experiments can be tough. Nothing calms the grad student soul like a warm cup of Joe.

Grad students can’t always stick to a normal 9-5 schedule. Starting an experiment on a Monday sometimes means they have to show up and work while others play.

Rejection, it stings. Whether it be a peer reviewer with a vendetta, or a major oversight.

Time for small celebrations! Only 2 more months of scrambling and hard work before a grad student gets a publication. A major benchmark for any scientist!

Publishing in a major journal can be the highlight of any grad student’s career. Tis time to bring the party hats and kazoos!
