New from the Sarah McMenamin, she/her lab #zebrafish

Incredibly proud of Melody's work on this study!

If you're thinking about going on the faculty job market, take a look at this advice doc I just shared with helpimascientist.com: I collected my thoughts about the whole dang thing, from finding positions to negotiating a contract, & I hope y'all find it helpful!

Yesterday was terrible. I'm happy to be able to keep doing the work I love with people I care about.

I quit posting a while ago, but in case this isn't clear: I don't use Twitter anymore. I also don't have the heart to move to another platform. Check the lab website for current lab news. Contact me by email, phone or face-to-face you wanna chat ❤️ sites.google.com/a/bc.edu/mcmen…
