Career choices and motivation: Why am I here and not elsewhere?

2017 was a big year! Our group had the opportunity to move from Utah to Emory, and we were also fortunate to be able to start a number of new projects, including adding a branch of education research. Given the title of this blog post, you might be tempted to think I’m going to discuss why we moved, but that’s not what this is about. That topic could in fact be addressed with a post titled “why you shouldn’t get your news from chemistry blogs.”
