key takeaways

wording really matters.  in order to sell an idea, you have to make sure people care. what is the 'impact factor'?

research is not linear. sometimes you find yourself more confused than where you started. that's okay. what is your research trying to say?

always stay curious and explore, even when you're not directly passionate about the topic at hand. find a way that it applies to all.

perspectives and diverse skillsets of your teammates will make or break a project. ask for advice.
