π Shoutout to Elionel for his incredible hard work and enthusiasm this summer in @FUNRScience! Iβm so proud of everything he's accomplished. π Look out for his Ph.D. applications this fall! ππ
As our academic year closes, weβd like to congratulate our first lab alum, @NDormanns, on receiving his Master's from @UniHannover. Your excellent training with @CBeemelmanns was pivotal to the FUNR lab's early success! We wish you the very best on your scientific journey!
Extraordinary day today helping with a microscopy-arts popup event sponsored by @StanfordArts! Huge thanks to @PrakashLab, @Frutag33, Hideo Mabuchi and @StraightLab members for bringing arts and science together.
Congratulations to PhD Candidate @MariaHTNguyen!!! The first PhD candidate of the FUNR Lab! You have an incredible journey ahead of you & congratulations on everything you have achieved so far!
Thankful for the people Iβve met and lessons Iβve learned while launching @FUNRscience this year. The experience helped me grow as a scientist and even more importantly as a person. Despite all of the chaos (incld. on this bird app) Iβm optimistic for 2023 & hope you are too π₯³π
