But the bottom line is that ovarian cancer research is underfunded. We also need more awareness of symptoms because early detection improves prognosis dramatically.

We are hiring! Come work with Justin van der Hooft and myself as a postdoc to integrate genomic and metabolomic data for natural product discovery. Be part of an amazing EU consortium with Piel Lab Marine Biodiscovery Centre, UoA Gilles van Wezel 💙💛 Fundación MEDINA #NAICONS and others. wur.nl/en/vacancy/Pos…

interesting how we call it a “two-body” problem and not an “academia doesn’t give a fuck about families and community” problem. placing the onus on the academic(s) for being partnered rather than the system for being individualist and inhumane.

Or maybe leave the rapping to the scientists who are willing to educate and not alienate people who are still hesitant about the vaccine?

I’ve got farming #ants at home… farming ants at work… These are carpenter ants I think? And they’re caring for some aphids on the underside of a morning glory leaf. aphids secrete honey dew that the ants then consume

We are organizing an amazing event @ucsf highlighting, giving a platform for, and building a community for native quantitative biologists. Join us on November 18-19. This year will be virtual meaning we can include more folks! Register: qbi.ucsf.edu/native-and-ind… Plz retweet!

I recently transitioned to just one crutch and for the first time in 5 weeks I just carried my freshly made cup of coffee from the kitchen to my couch and IM SO HAPPY 🥲 it sounds small but being able to carry a mug (anything really) has been impossible for weeks #littlethings

My mid 2012 Macbook Pro is apparently "obsolete" according to Apple and I'm quite offended on its behalf

Thank goodness for health insurance 😅

Note to self: don't google "how to kill a background job in linux" with your undergraduate researcher standing over your shoulder. They may be temporarily alarmed not knowing where you're going with this search...

I like biological networks 🤓♥️ #Biology #phdlife

Big congrats to Emily Green, PhD for a very successful PhD defense! Photo: Katie Kyle

Just so everyone is aware my laptop was stolen from the lab (BPB) UConn MCB last tue from behind our LOCKED doors by a former maintenance worker that the company never deactivated their acsess or informed UConn of his firing. It's in camera/record. Check your lab stuff everyone.

I'm fully vaccinated and I have had my booster. No, I don't know "what's in it". Neither this vaccine or the ones I had as a child. Nor do I know what's in the 11 secret herbs and spices at KFC.

I'm vaccinated. Not to please the government. Not to make other people do it. But I don't want to: * die from Covid-19 * clutter a hospital bed if I get sick * not be able to hug my loved ones * have to test routinely * live my life in fear ❣️🙏🏻❣️

It's that time of year again - REU season is just around the corner! Search available programs here nsf.gov/crssprgm/reu/ but consider applying to Wrigley Institute for Environment & Sustainability to work with us in summer 2022!

💔 ugh. Thank you for learning so much about ants and sharing it with the world 🐜
