Note

2 Q1 pubs (IF=9 & 16) & 1 prestigious conference paper; 3 yrs of R&D, reviewed 20 papers for 5 renowned journals; contacted Haithem Taha 2 months before ddline. He siad there WILL be a position. Read his 3 papers and proposed 4 areas as potential topics (he liked them). After spending 180$ and MUCH time on his papers, he said: "sorry I have no fundings!!!". Why on earth does a prof give us a dummy hope???
