After months of planning, the first EEMB Undergraduate Research Symposium finally happened today! It was such a success and couldn't have happened without some amazing undergraduates, volunteers, and fellow committee members. My heart is so full. 💛

The first-ever UCSB EEMB undergraduate research symposium was a huge success! I’m so proud of the amazing work done by the undergrad researchers and grateful to the rest of the (grad student led) planning committee; never underestimate the power of passionate grad students!🔬📊

UPDATE: 😍Thanks to all for retweeting, thanks to UC Berkeley Entomology for sleuthing, and thanks to Dawn Fallik for putting me in touch with the amazing Dr. Vernard Lewis, who was so generous with his time. I got to say thank you. We’ve planned to have lunch. Thanks Twitter! ❤️

Between this and the recent Nature/Science stories on grad student stipends, I really hope academia as a whole wakes up and takes a good long hard look in the mirror. Your best scientists are all leaving…this is a clear message. Overworked. Underpaid. Mentally exhausted… 🧵

Congrats to Dr. Rʜᴇᴛᴛ M. Rᴀᴜᴛsᴀᴡ 🐍 for defending his PhD today!
