It’s Kirby Lab Mistake of the Year 2023! We celebrate our mistakes every year, with nominations and voting by everyone in lab for best mistake made in the lab. We do this to show how mistakes are normal in research. And if you make an interesting-enough mistake, you can even get a prize.
This year we celebrate:
Runnerup: Jeremy (visiting grad student in MD/PhD program) for forgetting to come to lab meeting when he was presenting
Winner: Nidhi (NGP grad student) for making licor image files so large the software crashed, which tech support says has never happened before.
Congrats to this years winners!
