a bunch of my friends are choosing between PhD programs. here's my advice to them:

it is FAR more important to work with someone who is kind, than someone who does exactly the research you want to do or is at a prestigious institution.

One of my biggest issues with academia is that the reward for being incompetent at service is less service, and the reward for being good at service is more service, which can lead to unequal (+ very often gendered) service distributions. Any tips for dealing with this?!

Sharing a hack for my #SICB2023 and SICB+ folks!

Last year I recorded myself while giving my SICB talk at the conference, then added the audio to my PowerPoint afterward (there are tutorials online). This saved me a headache of recording my talk multiple times.
