Today begins the open-book portion of my qualifying exam, which I think makes me a Ph.D. Student as opposed to a Graduate Student if I pass. My topic of research, for which I have one week, is Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy. I think I'll post some of my findings here as I go. That way, I'll have a record of my research, and any of you who might be interested in the subject can get up to speed along with me. On my mark, get set, go.
