The PHD Movie 2 looks at themes of competition in research,
overcoming writer's block, and finding your voice. Winston is
now an integral part of Prof. Smith's Lab. However, the
current economic situation has put the lab in peril as
research funding levels are at an all-time low. The group must
travel to an important academic conference and square off
against a rival research group as they compete for results and
grant money. Meanwhile, Cecilia's advisor declares he is going
on sabbatical, which means she has to finish writing her
thesis or be stuck in grad school another year.<br>
<br>
Those of you who are fans of the comic are in for a rare treat
- Jorge Cham will be with us for the screening! There will be
a live Q&A following the movie with Jorge Cham!<br>
<br>
Savvy, delightful and humorous, we are excited to welcome
Jorge Cham back to MIT. Keep an eye on the MIT Event Calendar
listing of this event for further updates.<br>
<br>
"We can use films [such as The PHD Movie] to start a
conversation about how to nurture the practitioners and
purveyors of science."<br>
