This is a great position for a recent grad hoping to gain more research experience before applying to grad school.  Past technicians have been very successful in their applications to PhD, MD, and PharmD programs following this postbac.

@CterminiPhD Took buying a house to get ours set up but I love this wall so much! Grandad’s last gift to me was my diploma frame. Generations of high school degrees to this - he was so proud 🧡 also please enjoy top left pic which is what all normal people do when they wear regalia right?!

Bonus tweet: the gel worked and the digest looked great! 🏆

[Brittany Miller, PhD @BK_Miller_Micro]

We ran our first official DNA gel in the beautiful shared space of the Miller Lab and @dafang07 Lab. Many many thanks to @taraenders for helping my student and I with the 20 things I forgot I needed to run a gel. Time to order more things! Glow-up lab reno pics coming soon!

Happy Reading! And thank you to @JCellBiol for the excellent review process. The reviewers of our manuscript were kind, enthusiastic, and made our paper stronger. 🎉🧬🔬

[Brittany Miller, PhD @BK_Miller_Micro]

Super excited to share that our newest paper is out @JCellBiol ! https://t.co/HHZ2PfBK3b - In this multidisciplinary effort with the Brennwald lab and @therickybaker we identify a new allosteric activation mechanism for the exocyst! A short 🧵 on some of the highlights:

This was such a fun project to work on, and a fantastic team of scientists to do it with (including my first undergraduate mentee to be an author on a paper with me!). Genetic screens are my jam, and I relish any opportunity to show all of the great discoveries they can lead to.

@LuSantof @microscopicture It’s so weird and I love it so much
