It’s so quiet.
It’s August, and most of the Medicine academics (certainly the lecturers in my wing of the school) have gone away on holiday. The students are on their summer break, and the research labs are quiet, with the occasional confused PhD student. I’ve got another couple of weeks before I go away, and still have a couple of deadlines to hit and things to prepare for the start of teaching next semester. Research is progressing, and I have a post-doc starting research in my group in September. I’m not as busy as I have been, but I’m kept occupied. But it’s weird to work when it’s so quiet.
