It’s not every day you can stay at a hotel with art like this on the walls outside of your room. Originals by biochemistry illustrator Irving Geis. @HHMINEWS #SEAPHAGES

Last day of the SEA PHAGES Faculty meeting at HHMI headquarters @HHMINEWS. A great gathering—talks, workshops, posters, good food and fellowship. So much fun to be here as a member (if only for a short time) of the Graham Hatfull lab. Thanks to our incredible hosts!

Both my home city (Providence) and my adopted home city (Pittsburgh) are on this list! #Pittsburgh #Providence ⁦⁦Visit Pittsburgh⁩ ⁦Rhode Islander⁩ apple.news/AeZPwK4U6QfOR7…

👀 I spy our book @DrMrsKellyHogan!

I’ve read it. It is a joy and lots of laughter. Lots of things that infuriated me too, as a woman in chemistry. #LessonsInChemistry

Soil samples collected by participants at the Phage Discovery Workshop! Will we discover phages targeting Microbacterium foliorum? Stay tuned! #SEAPHAGES @HHMINEWS UMBC

First full day of the Phage Discovery Workshop UMBC. Working on phage isolation using the direct method. Participants learned how to do the plaque assay this morning. Enthusiasm is high! #SEAPHAGES @HHMI

Afternoon lab work at the Phage Discovery Workshop UMBC. Everyone is picking up the techniques so quickly that we’re ahead of schedule! #SEAPHAGES @HHMINEWS

So exciting! We discovered two F1 phages Providence College—maybe like Che8 they are glycosylated! Katie Wetzel taught me CRISPY BRED; Debbie J-S taught me to purify phage & @KristaGFreeman taught me glycostaining. My Providence College Chemistry students & I are ready to get into the lab this fall!

Electron microscopy day at the Phage Discovery workshop! Every single participant successfully prepared a grid and was able to visualize their phage! UMBC @HHMINEWS #SEAPHAGES #PhageDiscoveryWorkshop

Phage Olympics! Billy Biederman presides. Phage discovery workshop participants advocate for sequencing of their phages. Two phages will be selected for sequencing. Whose will it be? UMBC @HHMINEWS #SEAPHAGES

Last night at the Phage Discovery Workshop! We’ve worked hard all week so now it’s time to have some fun with karaoke and dancing.

Such a great community of biochemistry educators! This short conference has been jampacked with talks, posters, workshops, plenary sessions, networking and more. Can’t wait to try out some of what I’ve learned here in my fall semester courses. ASBMB #TUEMLS2023

Congratulations Seann! So well deserved!

Congratulations @KristaGFreeman! The Case Western Reserve students will be so lucky to have you as a professor!
