There was a lady who started her PhD a year ahead of me. Eventually, she went for her qualifying exam. After her 30 mins presentation, she was questioned by the committee for another 1 hour and 30 minutes. One of the questions she was asked was: Where do transcription and translation take place in the cell? She missed the question completely. I think the committee was surprised because that was considered very basic science. At the end of the exam, she was asked to assess her own performance, which is a common practice. She rated herself very highly, and I think that became another concern for the committee because her performance had been considered poor. They probably expected a more honest self-evaluation. Sadly, she could not continue with the program after that. That was the end of her PhD journey there. But beyond her experience, I learned something important very quickly: never neglect the basics of science. It is easy to become so focused on complex ideas, advanced techniques, and “big” concepts that you overlook the simple foundations that hold everything together. After hearing that story, I intentionally went back to revisit my fundamentals. I downloaded materials, watched YouTube videos, and even refreshed my knowledge of statistics. Mind you, I had earned a distinction in Biostatistics…😁 Yet, I still realized there was more depth and clarity I needed. And interestingly, statistics was part of the questions I was eventually asked during my own exam. I think many people in science and academia become overly fascinated with complexity while underestimating the importance of truly understanding the basics. But the truth is, good science should be simple enough to explain clearly and understand deeply. We must pay more attention to the fundamentals because they are what truly make science solid.

"There are those hearts, reader, that never mend again once they are broken. Or if they do mend, they heal themselves in a crooked and lopsided way, as if sewn together by a careless craftsman." —Kate DiCamillo, The Tale of Despereaux.

"Science is about failure. We learn from the failures." Even Nobel Prize laureates fail. Medicine laureate Craig Mello speaks about how the challenge of science goes hand in hand with encountering failure. Mello shared the 2006 medicine prize with Andrew Fire “for their discovery of RNA interference - gene silencing by double-stranded RNA.”

The fascination in nature is the realisation that when we relax, everything around us is at work to give us the basis for life. This fact alone should fill us with gratitude and treat nature with respect and kindness 💚🌿☘️🌱🌲🌳🍀💚
