Applying to Microbiology PHD programs (WITH RESULTS!)

My very raw PHD application process/interview/acceptances journey of a more non-traditional applicant (no pubs, no undergrad research experience, chem major going to microbio programs) from 2023-2024! I wish I recorded more, but that's part of the genuine aspect of this. You just go through a roller coaster of emotions, motivation, and stress, and sometimes you don't want to record yourself,,
In short, I am going to Duke University for a PhD in Microbiology! If anyone wants a more detailed video on why/where/how I applied to microbiology PhD programs, I can make a longer video with more... talking hahah. I know the next round is coming up soon!! Good luck to everyone who got in and to those applying this next cycle!
also I photoshopped the lab coat onto me in the thumbnail, like this vid if you think I did a good job LOL
