I have a bachelor's degree in neural sciences and so I know a tiny bit about this stuff. My pdoc knows my background and it was so nice to have him ask me what I think I need. Sometimes he agrees, sometimes he disagrees, but I think it's really important to have this kind of dialog. And the more we talk, the more I learn about my crazy brain! It is definitely empowering. I think that knowledge is knowledge. Sometimes we can teach our pdocs a thing or two also- often they are so busy that they don't get a chance to read all the abstracts or keep up with the latest studies. And they shouldn't be threatened by it (ideally).
