Way to go! :woot: Conditional or unconditional offer? Where? Doing what? Who's the prof? Inquiring minds want to know! :clap:
This programme http://www.ucd.ie/graduatestudies/prosp ... v-biology/ Unconditional I think. I just have to send them my most recent transcripts.
You gotta meet Dory and GenesForLife at least, or what do you say based on e.g. these threads?

This starts a bit slow, but picks up soon, and after that oscillates irregularly between the basic and the advanced (and some humor) http://rationalia.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... 34&start=0

What happens when this question is posed: "Say, GFL, what do I need to buy in order to have a proper biopunk lab?" http://rationalia.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... 17&start=0

And there are others, like http://rationalia.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... 45&start=0

I hope you will also find your way to the Pub. It's the really relaxed and laid-back section. :cheers:

Hello fellow Irish person, welcome to the least sensible place on the internet.

And . . . the opportunity to spend 70 or 80 years of your life in such a universe is time well spent as far as I am concerned.

The spoiler helps, so don't sweat it. I don't post images myself, they're distracting, but those that do find the spoiler handy.
