My daughter's PhD thesis was largely negative results. Even if the project had failed, we could learn from it if it wasn't so secretive. It could be much more open without being OSS!

It is at least as important to know which approaches do not work, but this gets significantly less press, which is not that attractive for scientists in the age of "publish or perish".

Absolutely. The proud nerd dad function :D

Congratulations to your daughter for her PhD. I'm guessing she has got it by now.

Sonic hedgehog signalling pathway! And what a date to submit a thesis.

Why is that a negative result, btw?
