Successful researchers need to have many talents. They have to be creative, of course. They also need to motivate group members, finish projects, manage collaborations, mentor, be resilient...it's a long list.
Please tell me skills/talents a researcher needs to have.
PLEASE RT

Our latest study using TGFBR inhbitor for breast cancer prevention is officially out on @NatureComms. We showed that TGFBR inhibition induces lasting changes and prevents estrogen- and carcinogen-induced mammary tumors in rat models. Congrats to all!
