the interactions of individual grad students who have unlimited access to the internet is often characterized by the exchange of eclectic scientific articles they encountered during their research. This has resulted in some forms of observed social impairment in these students who cannot carry out normal conversations without referencing scientific journals, sometimes even with citations already inserted. Post Immersion in Scientific Studies Syndrome (PISSs) is additionally characterized by a need to structure any written piece into clearly defined introduction, methods, results, discussion and conclusion sections, even if the piece is purely anecdotal or a journal entry. Tremors and muttering of a formerly associated adviser's name may be witnessed along with an inverted sleep schedule. PISSs can be therapeutically treated by gradually engaging in activities with non-academic individuals and browsing through pictures of cats.
