This goal is related to four of my other (perhaps less specific) goals to:

(1) “find work I’m passionate about”
(2) “meet interesting people”
(3) “be more creative”
(4) “determine which activities to prioritize and which to eliminate”

I am currently well on my way to advancing to candidacy on one research project, which will be my primary one for graduation. Once I get it up and running, data collection will be slow but steady. Since I don’t have more classes to take, I’m looking for other projects.

I am specifically interested in adding a second project on memory research, and I am currently taking a class with the person doing that work. One of my committee members may have a third project that I can contribute to, as well. I have also recently joined a research group doing some consciousness work, too.

Hopefully this will give me some more ideas about where to focus in the job hunt looming just over the horizon.
