Hello - I joined a lab in the spring just before labs shut down. I reached out to my PI today and he shared that they would indeed like to allow me to return. He requested a zoom meeting to "discuss how I would like to proceed and to talk about my plans". Frankly, I'm still relatively new to the lab and was not finished with training. Previously I was doing some work independently at the cryostat, some PCR and was about to learn mouse surgeries. I would not be able to design a project on my own yet. I want to ensure I go into this meeting prepared, and want to more explicitly define these plans that he has actually brought up in the past (to which I replied simply that I would like to take away as much as I could from the experience and to learn whatever they were willing to teach me). He did in the past promise that I could work on my own project at some point. Is he asking me to come forth with an independent project idea? Please give advice. To take utmost advantage of this opportunity, how should I go about this? Thanks guys.
