“Things have really changed now. Undergrads no longer appreciate being compared to monkeys.” #SfN22
Presenting at #SfN22 this morning! Stop by my poster and learn a thing or two about glutamate and #Alzheimers 🧠🔬
Scientists should speak regularly on social justice issues. Claiming that #science publications should "stay in their lane" ignores the important contributions of science to #healthequity and policy. scientificamerican.com/article/every-…
What can mushrooms in the Alaskan forest tell us about #climate change? I had the wonderful opportunity to sit down with @DrTreseder to talk all things fungi and forest health. Check it out below: asbmb.org/asbmb-today/pe… @ASBMB
I just finished reading @nature’s special issue content on racism in science. I found it powerful, depressing, uplifting, fascinating, and inspirational. In the hopes that I can tempt you to check out the wide content, here’s a quick🧵on all the content.nature.com/immersive/d428…

"I understand the gravity of being a woman and now a #Nobel laureate in the sciences. There aren't that many of us—yet." Prof. @CarolynBertozzi on chemistry, mentorship and representation ⬇️
Women and people from marginalized communities have been underrepresented in biomedical research. "The lack of diversity has led to bad science", says professor @EstebanBurchard. Watch the clip to hear him discuss the importance of inclusion in research. #DEI #STEMdiversity
At a recent conference, most talks ended with an ad for postdocs. Unchanged @NIH modular budgets, low postdoc salaries, visa complications, uncertain career prospects, are problems. Yet the U.S. research model depends on postdocs. Something has to change. nature.com/articles/d4158…
