That will give you the idea what is known and is considered the state of the art. It takes time, because you must first understand the field sufficiently to essentially "know what you don't know" :) Then you can pick a problem to work on. Your thesis advisor/director and senior researchers in the lab you are going to do the doctorate at could help you a lot there. Typically they might have a topic or problem for you to work on already. Also don't worry too much about the topic you may be asked to write on your PhD application - one usually puts there something extremely generic, because you won't know a good problem to work on before you have done about a year of research in the field! > > ps: I found a thesis director, I will speak to him later today. > I think that is the best thing to do.
