[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid has published 3 scientific papers as an undergrad, one as first author. I attribute this in part to the fact that she is not doing scut work for a Masters student, doctoral student or post-doc. There is no one between her and the PI, who has written her great recommendations for internships and grad school. ( She is at a tiny LAC). [/quote]

Association doesn't mean causation.[/quote]

But facts are facts, and her college has NO graduate students or post-docs...so, the professors can only employ undergrads to work in their labs.

Your pithy comment is totally irrelevant, but maybe you heard a scientist say it once? (I am an actual scientist, and know when that statement applies.)[/quote]

If you're an actual scientist then you're a terrible one.  So her school has no grad students or post-docs.  That's just great.  But it doesn't mean that schools that do are devoid of research opportunities for students who want them.  [/quote]
