Trying to design a Cu(II) stoichiometry assay for my protein for the umpteenth billion time.

I'm working through a couple of online algorithms courses to force myself to refine my c++ skill set.

Refining my fap folder, while reading up on a bunch of molecular biology papers and lurking 4chan.

Can you tell me more? Physics undergrad here.

the problem is that almost every company expects 3+ years of experience and the other companies get more than 100 applications for every job offer, which makes it very unlikely to get the job

i live in Germany btw.

Are you me?

Jobs are easier to get if you're published/have done lots of research in your undergrad/graduate degrees.

But I totally understand this. Even with papers and research experience, it can still be extremely difficult. Easier if you have a doctorate though.

PhD thesis. Written 200 pages. Need to keep chugging along.

Also got a letters paper in mind but my supervisors wont let me get into it until I make more progress on the thesis.
