"Undergraduate students can be a boon to your lab. Many undergraduates in the natural sciences will never take part in research, despite a willingness to learn. But their presence can teach others how to lead." nature.com/articles/d4158…

I went to 3! The last, Merritt, got me on the path to grad school. Forever grateful to Merritt Biosciences Department ! I've now worked for NASA and Joint Genome Institute. I worked full time through nearly all my education and CC had night classes and incredible, instructors! #phdlife

Took 1-8y off science for family during your postdoc or faculty position? Contact NIH funded labs to see if they will write a reentry for you. Please RT these little-known supplements: nigms.nih.gov/Research/Mecha…

Check out our new course on BioImage analysis ow.ly/zblt50wqNDv. This course provides an overview of the practice and principles of #microscopy digital image handling.

Remotely assisting a thrilled GS in her final months on a Sunday morning after the AxioScan has been down for several months is the JOY I needed. The new computer is lovely. The software version it supports is smarter than the one I’d been using. This is doable! @BerkeleyMIC

Linda Vázquez, Ed.D. @MSCollegeOpp UC Berkeley University of California Vikash Reddy You have a better chance of graduating if you are optimistic. So let’s encourage our students to be optimistic. I think that’s better than standardized testing.

Seems like a good time to remind everyone to follow the proper guidelines for microscope decontamination. One of our field service engineers alerted us that people have been using saturated clorox wipes on their touchscreens, leading to broken screens :( leica-microsystems.com/science-lab/ho…

As a #BlackBirder, you can find me with my binocs, my guide, and my trusty snake stick (gotta stay ready for the herps). My visibility is usually for my young Black siblings, but this week has inspired me to be visible for so many more. #BlackWomenWhoBird #BlackBirdersWeek

We belong here. #makespace #beintentional

My cousin called me yesterday in tears. Someone told her she's not a #RealCollege student because she attends a community college. I let her cry to me. I called out the fool. And, I am determined to continue my work to #EndCCStigma. Will you join me? higheredtoday.org/2019/06/26/era…

Please join me & our imaging colleagues in creating safer, accessible & inclusive environments for Black, Brown, LGBTQIA, women, and everyone else underrepresented & historically marginalized in science by joining the BINA D&I WG group. #makespace

Dear Educators, Please do not spend too much time arguing whether it is structural, cultural, or individual. Whether it is in the classroom or outside. Whether it is us or what students bring. Whether actions be public or private. Answer: ALL OF THE ABOVE. #BlackMindsMatter
