Synopsis

The Savvy Scientist is the book that scientists wish they had when they started graduate school. This book is packed with advice on picking a school, saving money, getting affordable equipment, making friends, and how to approach your sales rep. It is also full of jokes. The author's hard-fought experience is shared in the hopes of helping new students navigate graduate school and managing laboratories, including the pursuit of grant funding and well-planned experiments. If you're new to research, The Savvy Scientist was written for you. If you know someone who is new to research or needs to manage a lab for the first time, The Savvy Scientist was written for them too. The Savvy Scientist is also a sympathetic look at science from someone who has been there. This book addresses impostor syndrome, "being a traitor to science," and more. It was written to be an encouragement to new researchers. Hopefully it makes them laugh a bit, too.
