We received acceptance notice for a manuscript from the journal office on 5/27/2018.
I'll write about the contents once it is published. For now, I'd just say the paper is somewhat personal. Maybe because of that, I felt very happy about the acceptance.
In the past a few days, I was working on things related to the paper and its acceptance, including preparing for final edit and correction, sending a notice for "news of acceptance of relevant publication" to granting agency, and preparing for paperwork that needs to be done before publication.
The summer student showed up and is working in the lab. Apparently he is doing fine. I am happy about it, too.
