The worst one I ever met was a 25 year old woman, PHD student at the most competitive phd program in human history, and had absolutely no passion, or care, is probably going to leave science when she graduates
>Another, I asked her about her phd in cancer, genomics she's 10 + years into the making molecular bio, etc and she could barely explain what her work is, and was more interested in talking about social interactions with her lab mates.
