Sunday again, another week passed by un-noticed.
This week was all about estimating amylose content in starch samples isolated from a F2 mapping population. It was a huge task to perform as the mapping population comprised 381 individuals. Also, at the same time, primer screening for polymorphism and genotyping in F2 progeny was done.
As , only a final week of internship remains, it's time to start preparing final report and wrapping up the things.
It seems a long way since applying for this internship, waiting for the results, accepting the fellowship offered, joining the institute, getting acquainted with the lab, getting an essence of true research, mingling with scientific community, failing and raising up, doing mistakes and learning and now with all the experiences and enthusiasm to stay in the field, work hard and work smart.
Each and every person at the lab taught me something or the other, it includes both things to do and things not to do. Every day had something new to teach and something new to absorb.
Watching everyone plan, discuss, work and learn has in it itself, great joy. In a scientific community, everyone has something to give and a lot to take from others. The most youngest in the lab might have a lot to teach to others while the seniors do not hesitate to take help. The discussions that go on at the place are worth listening to. they open the channels of thinking wider and bigger. It is really a great opportunity for having been able to get exposed to such an environment.
Having great time.
Have a happy sunday.
