Well, Spring semester is over, but I am teaching the first session of summer school, and that means I get 2 weeks to frantically prepare. As usual, I will be teaching Advanced Topics in Preventive Nutrition, a graduate level course.
Besides that, here is part of my academic-related to-do list for the summer:
- Write a grant to apply for money to run a one-year study to study the barriers of reducing salt intake for residents in a middle/low income neighborhood.
- Prepare two invited talks for conferences in Fall.
- Do some statistical analysis on diet and cancer risk (this is my main area of research)
- Write a review paper on Mediterranean diet and cardiovascular disease risk.
- Prepare for classes in Fall.
I can tell you right away that I won't be able to finish all of it, but such is the demands of my work. I enjoy what I do, I just wish that I have 30 hours a day.
