Pursuing a PhD in a Pandemic

Uncertainty is a fact of life for just about any PhD student, especially in the hectic final year of a thesis project. So much can change and so much is unknown. Data shifts. Funding is fickle. The right postdoc job could require relocation to a faraway city. It’s all part of the territory for a young scientist. But nothing can prepare a PhD student to complete a project in a pandemic.
