- A nice guide on preparing for meetings with your advisor: “Often, people think of meetings as a time when they update their PI on what they’ve been doing to show they’ve been working/working hard…. this is not the purpose of the meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss data and exchange information so that your project can progress more smoothly. “
