Only Resist [Tattoo]

Craig writes: “I’m a bioengineering undergrad and am currently interviewing for medical schools (MD/PhD programs).  I got this tattoo of a resistor on my wrist, somewhat on a whim.  I’ll always be a science geek at heart, however I truly desire to go into medicine in order to help people.  The resistor is a sort of reminder to me to ‘resist’ any temptation of money, power, or anything else in order to do good science and to help others.”
