Plan of the Day

  • Catch up with weekly planning and task management since I’ve been sick for the last two weeks.
  • Create March Goals and plan for attainment

Projects Touched Today

  • Mussel Biomarkers
  • PhD Proposal
  • Lab Notebook

Progress Notes

  • It feels like everything is a bit messy currently, so a dedicated session to untangle the projects and required outcomes was truly necessary.
  • I first worked on extending the timelines and required deliverables for my non-dissertation projects before pivoting to planning my dissertation work. I chose to do it this way so I could identify what kind of timeline my non-dissertation projects would require so I could either delegate or manage the tasks for myself.
  • I reviewed the current state of the biomarker manuscript and the PhD proposal and identified some steps to complete both projects.
