I’ll be speaking at the WSUSACNAS chapter meeting today and then giving a research seminar at WSU School of Biological Sciences tomorrow. 👩🏻‍🔬

All NIH summer internship programs across all institutes cancelled 😡 Cutting into our future workforce- Our future Nobel prize winners! Elon Musk How does this help American competitiveness?

Was a honor to speak at the WSUSACNAS chapter meeting today about my academic journey. I also had the pleasure to meet Jimena, the current WSU SACNAS chapter president. #professorlife #representationmatters SACNAS

Nearly 100 NIH study sections were canceled in the past month. Here is a list of the canceled meetings, compiled by Annika Barber at Rutgers Univ. As a result, the process of biomedical science funding has been halted in the United States. tinyurl.com/5auw74s4

Congrats to Delgado lab researcher Seattle Pacific University Ben Sheirbon for winning the #AAASmtg FIRST PLACE 🥇 undergrad e-poster prize for his research presentation in the “Developmental Bio, Genetics & Immunology” section AAAS. His name will be in Science Magazine! I am a #proudPI

Learned a new technique today at the Escobar lab University of Washington . RNA quality ✅ was great after tape station analysis. Next week is cDNA library prep before RNA-seq. #professorlife #latina #scientist👩🏻‍🔬

We NEED indirect costs from NIH grants. These essential funds provide support essential for completing research studies that will lead to life saving discoveries. Thank you to KING5 for visiting our lab to cover this story: king5.com/article/tech/s…

Their silencing must be our speaking. Words to encourage in our homes, institutions, and neighborhoods. Source: NYT

Two Latina PIs (Seattle Pacific University & University of Washington) back at the bench for a special collaboration, prepping Illumina libraries for RNA-seq. Dr. Thelma Escobar and I went to college UCLA together and were in the #MARC program. So thankful for her help in this research project. #ProfessorLife

Go Bruins! UCLA Men’s Basketball

My labs RNA-seq samples are in! Thanks to my collaborator Dr Thelma Escobar at UW and ISCRM at UW for their help! Now we wait for data 👩🏻‍🔬
