Michelle Obama saying she's been at every powerful table you could think of and quickly realizing "they're not that smart." I think about how many women feel that exact same way while in male-dominated rooms/fields.

Is it really happening?! The NEW permanent Smith Lab space UCSD BioSciences UC San Diego Health Sciences is finally ready after only 659 days of waiting (1yr 9mo 20d)!!!! Come see! 👀 1/2

I am so concerned/upset about this UC San Diego . How will we get any new faculty? This is our only chance to buy a house here as faculty

My lab manager parnazboroon is incredible and does everything! (Ordering, inventories, safety, mouse colony, managing undergrads, experiments and sooo much more!). Plus all lab members have their own lab tasks. At home- a house cleaner, gardener and use grocery delivery a lot 🙃

I have given this a lot of thought- I think it’s state matching- and actually not all that surprising that when we are socially communicating and matching each other moods (eg you tell a funny joke and we both laugh) that our physiological patterns and neural activity are similar

Every grad program needs to ensure their students are aware that even of you squeeze thru the bottleneck & get a faculty position, the numbers in the 2019 plot shown here have gotten worse: now you need 25 proposals to get 95% probability of funding, as drug monkey updates here

Don’t mind me carting a fiddle leaf fig across the UCSD campus to my new office… 🌱 🌳 ✨

It’s here and it’s fabulous 🩷
