刚工作三个月, 老板很坏, 被迫辞职.
好象研究所和他老板都不打算有什么表示, 除了号召大家捐款. 令人心寒

life is too weak

刚刚毕业加入我们Institue不到3个月的 Dr. LiMengXin 在上周结束了自己的年轻的生
命。据说他的死和工作上的不愉快有一定的联系，但是没有人知道更多。令人有些心寒
的是，他的离去显得那么无声无息，除了他的几位同学，没有人谈论。同一个办公室里
人甚至都不知道他是谁。

他的离开应该是很让人心痛的，不应该这么冷漠啊。真是太可惜了。

此人名：Mengxin LI

RESEARCH FOCUS

My primary interest is to elucidate the structures and dynamics of all functional DNA elements in complex genomes through transcriptome characterizations and genome interrogation. To facilitate such understanding we have developed paired-end-ditag (PET) based high throughput and high precision DNA sequencing and mapping methodologies. We are applying these sequencing-based measurements to address complex biological questions such as how cancer cells progress and how stem cells maintain their unique properties. Another major interest of mine is to discover previously uncharacterized microbial genes and genomes that are relevant to human health. To this end, we have established a metagenome analysis capability that includes a filtration system for isolating uncultured microbes, shotgun and PET sequencing of metagenomes to uncover viral and bacterial genome sequences from a variety of environment settings and cavities of the human body.

看来那个老板一点愧疚都没有啊. 我们不少人都捐了50, 100的. 他看来顶多也就这个数了. 他每月工资可是好几万呢.

cheap labor and easy to be replaced. most postdoc will not have a good career.
better jump ship as soon as possible.
This bro should not give up like this. so sad for his parents.

怎么对得起家人
