Letting go...

And that's it!

I've made my mind, I've made up my mind about my priorities. And the lab is no longer one :( Unfortunately...
Looking back, I can see too much time spent on fruitless details... bad time management, too many things at the same time... too many people to please, and above all myself and my selfish ego.
But now it's time to move on and maximize the profit of what I've worked on for 3 years: my models.
The rest remain as projects for future generations... they certainly will have an entire experimental project plan which they can follow almost with their eyes closed! So I hope someone picks it up and takes plasmid biology to the next level.

I'm left with writing and supervising a summer student for two months, most probably the last time I'll be in the lab.

And... speaking of which, time to wrap up the methods section for sub-sequential peer revision...

See you and me soon!
