I was talking to my friend and student María C.M.. She just got published her first manuscript. We all remember the joy we felt when our first paper came out, showing that we were becoming a real scientist!! I was talking to her and trying to explain that five years later, I still get happy when I see my work on its final published version. We spend so much time acquiring data, processing it, plotting it into graphs that can talk by themselves, writing the results, editing them again and again until we get a final manuscript... It just feels great to see it finished, shiny and hanging out in the journal's website.
On the other side of the Ph.D., my friend and colleague Yeray S.F. who is about to defend his thesis, has also gotten a paper published this same month. Even though this paper presented a hard fight, anyone that knows him could have seen his enthusiasm on disseminating the results once it came out. Getting the final version of your work feels great to us scientists and thus, I want to congratulate María and Yeray for their work and perseverance, and wish them luck on their next steps. (You can check their work on the publication tab of this website). -------------------------------------------- |
