Sooooooo………one time I had this idea I really wanted to test. SO MUCH. I wrote a paper about it which saw publication in 2014. In 2015 with my newly minted faculty position I wrote an R01 to test this exciting shiny idea.

I told my 1st graduate student they could do their dissertation on this cool new data I’d surely be able to collect from my grant that I’d get to test this shiny idea @LauraMachlin :)

So. This one time I applied for a grant *7* times. Not getting that grant 6 times made me angry but also stubborn. I had a useful testable hypothesis and damnit I was going get money to test it.
