#studying genetics

|| 30/6/2022 ||

I feel so productive today. I've wanted to read this particular article ages ago and I've postponed reading it long enough. It's about the association between the SLC6A4 gene (also known as the serotonin transporter gene) and schizophrenia.

The last couple of weeks I've been unable to study due to some issues but when I resolved them I didn't find the energy to study. And thus, this blog is made. I made this blog with the intent of sharing with you my journey as a genetics student. And I'm sticking to my words—it helps me get motivated to get things done.

I don't really know what to write here but hello all! My name is Annie and I'm 23. I'll be using this blog to share my thoughts and experiences as a graduate student who wants to get a PhD in genetics someday!

I'm not really in a Master's program at the moment, but I graduated Pharmacy School and I'm taking courses on genetics to help me in my journey of getting a degree in genetics.

I'm greatly interested in evolution (this was just an expected result of my obsession with genetics) so I will also use this blog to explain how it works to curious souls.
