In 2018, three colleagues and I published a front-cover paper in @PNASNews It has > 170 citations as of 2022, and it was a success that might not have happened: • We had $0 budget • We had no PI (Principal Investigator) • We had no credentials [Here's how we did it] 🧵

I paid for my ug to take the GRE. He was living out of his car. My PI found out. She reimbursed me. She promised him full part time wage every week as long as he did *something.* She paid for his grad school apps. He’s a world-class PhD student now. It’s not hard to be decent.
