PostDoc Candidates Visiting

This week we had two postdoc candidates coming for visit, on Tuesday and Thursday respectively.

Usually it is on students' shoulder arranging schedule for our guests. This time, somehow, Tim kept the job in his hand. As expected, it went to a pretty disorganized way...

No one knows who those two are in advance. No one was asked to sign-up talking with our visitors.

The first one came from UCSF (of course, where else it could be?), working on structural biology. She did a good PhD. However seems has no idea what she gonna do and why pick our lab...

The visit of second one is even more "interesting". In the morning when he came to the conference room, no one was there. Tim backed to the lab and told everybody there was a talk downstairs.

Then right before the talk, Tim said he hurted his back in the morning. So he would lay down on the ground. Thus the talk was given with Tim confortably laid down on the floor, with a pillow behind his head, a strange view.

It's not over yet, later the fire alarm came to interrupt the talk, Chris went out and found it was from our neighbor connected building. We decided to ignore it but our guest had to give his talk all the way with annoying alarming sound.

I wonder who will join our lab after all these...haha.
