@RogersLabUCD Terrifying!!

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

@PhD_Genie I know your Chair supports you…

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

@baym Let me know if you find out, because same!

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

Excellent work, Carolyn! So glad this is finally out!

[HHMI | Janelia @HHMIJanelia]

New research led by Carolyn Ott, a senior scientist @JLS_Lab, provides the most detailed & comprehensive description yet of cilia in the mouse visual cortex, giving scientists new insights into the formation & function of this small & elusive organelle.

@HHMIJanelia @ReiterLab @JLS_Lab Excellent work Carolyn! I’ve been waiting for this to come out- so important for our field!

@ShakiraRHobbs @Momademia Again this is less advice on how to “succeed” and more about how to be at peace and have compassion for yourself and others. What else is there, really?

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

@ShakiraRHobbs @Momademia Others without the same constraints also tend to not see them. This whole thing was driven home for me during the pandemic- there were just things I *could not* do at that time. I do the very best I can and I let go of the rest.

@RogersLabUCD Tagging along with outgoing friends at conferences is a valid networking strategy! At least, that’s what I tell myself…😅

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

@BazziLab @Duke_PCB And I see you’ve moved to Michigan- that’s great! Congrats and I hope the move is going smoothly!

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

Happy New Year! This one is special for me since my promotion to Associate Professor with tenure @Duke_PCB takes effect today! A giant thank you to all current and former lab members who have ALL done great work over the past 8+ years!

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

It was so crucial when I was a new PI to know that I could trust my colleagues to fairly (if critically at times) review my work with the goal of making it better, not out of competition or to play games. I look forward to carrying on the tradition of looking after our jr folks.

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

Another giant thank you to the greater cilia/centrosome biology community! It’s been such a welcoming and supportive scientific community going back to when I was a trainee 15+ years ago.

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

My New Year’s resolution is to spend more time at the bench and in the mouse room, and less time in my office. Hopefully without making a giant mess!

@mbeisen This is actually a very popular home size in my city (Durham, NC)- 1000-1200 sq foot houses. Problem is they go for ~400k here, and we are far from the most expensive market. Some neighborhoods they are 500-600k. So you already need a 6 figure income to afford it.

@lpachter @jallepap That is amazing! A nap room stocked with snacks??!! That's a fantastic recruitment tool!

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

In vivo BioID targeting neuronal cilia started out as a fanciful idea shortly after starting my lab. I'm so glad there were these talented people around who actually made it work!

[Sarah Goetz @GoetzLab]

I'm excited to have this manuscript out!
In vivo BioID to label cilia and identify new components of cilia in neurons.
Identification of new ciliary signaling pathways in the brain and insights into neurological disorders https://t.co/2kmKX0Dvdw

This was the work of @LoukilLab when he was a postdoc in my lab, former technician Emma Ebright, and our collaborators in @SoderlingLab.

@TrumanLab Lol- “ideal world” and R01s in the same sentence! 🤣🤣
