@shauritacodes I wanted to be a veterinarian or an emergency physician. Then I remembered that my tolerance for people actively panicking is less than ideal 😂

The importance of stupidity in scientific research

@FromPhDtoLife Yes! Multiple times while interviewing in various biotech roles

@academic_exit Left with my Master’s, and it was honestly the best decision I’ve ever made

[Academic Exit @academic_exit]

I don't know who needs to hear this, but:

It's OK to want to leave academia
It's OK to leave academia
You'll be OK after you leave academia

Back me up here, commenters: raise you're hand if you've left and you're OK.

@oldenoughtosay I was a week and a half into my job and my adopted grandmother died of GBM. I said I needed to limit meetings… my boss told me to go grieve and to come back when I was ready.

@LALawnWarrior @shauritacodes A room that 1) has to be accessible during working hours of the person needing it, 2) lockable, 3) not a bathroom or closet otherwise used for something that can be harmful based on exposure.

You clearly have no idea what DEI is really for, do you?

[Emily Page @EmFaithPage]

@LALawnWarrior @shauritacodes Not when you don’t have one in the building you work in. Then it is their issue.

@LALawnWarrior @shauritacodes DEI offices actually impact beyond your assumptions. While in grad school I used our DEI office for a safe place to use a breast pump after my son was born. Any gap in normal recommendations can become a DEI office issue.

@clhubes It’s not the $600 price tag itself. It’s what that price tag eliminates, and the potential business interactions with people that can afford it.

@cenewman0 Oh my word WHERE? I’m having Mardi Gras withdrawals

454 Bio just launched an open source DNA sequencing platform that could be a game changer in a space that has been previously controlled by a few companies @454Bio 🧬👀 https://t.co/vuVT5j3Kzb

I need a “stuck at home with 2 toddlers acting like the squirrel from Ice Age, so ask for Zoom meeting with caution” option for my work calendar. #snowday

@cenewman0 Been on this struggle bus for years now 🤣 Edgar’s is decent, and we had the exact same praline conversation. I have YET to find a raspberry cream cheese one and I’m debating having it shipped.

@DeathCab4Callie Call the office. Let them know what happened. Likely, if you want to be seen you can do a sick visit. Our ped also offers where they’ll do the well check portion minus shots (generally towards the end of illness) and then do a shot appointment a week after symptoms have calmed.

@drpepperis100 @shauritacodes Coming here to say this too.

@cenewman0 @bnlasse I feel like you also need this
