Chemistry meets GLEE: A Thanksgiving Production. Saying a prayer for good NMR data before leaving campus. This might be my favorite video my research students convinced me to make 🥰
Yesterday Anthony Fauci called this year's respiratory infections a “viral jambalaya.” It tastes worse than it sounds: COVID killed 552 Americans yesterday. Get your COVID & flu shots to stay safe. 📷 Lam Yik Fei/@nytimes
A random reminder that junior-ish PIs have primarily just been trying to survive the chaos of the last ~2.5 years. It seems like that keeps getting forgotten.
Wrapping up another great hybrid #GEDI Science Team meeting, with updates on mission status, data products, and applications from so many incredible folks! We discussed the fight to #SaveGEDI, stewarding data user needs, collaborative efforts, and more.

“If humans don’t even care about a disease that’s killing off their own, how are they going to care about something that affects amphibians?”, said Molly Bletz, Director of International Disease Mitigation at the Amphibian Survival Alliance 😢

Been a bit since we did a proper fishpost.
So let's talk about the longest-lived freshwater fish in the world, America's own Bigmouth Buffalo.
This is going to be a wild one because, to do this right, we're going to have to talk about Nuclear Bombs.
We are still looking for candidates for this position, but would like to hire someone ASAP. Please see thread below for details and apply here: https://t.co/EeBut8zAwf
Please also share broadly!!! This will be a really fun and rewarding job to broaden participation in Biology!
Congrats to @NeilBalchan for placing 3rd in the @okstate@3MT_official Three Minute Thesis today and @himidu_ for placing 2nd! Great showing by @IntegrativeBIOL grad students today!
Switzerland has reversed the decline of more than half of threatened amphibians in Aargau by constructing hundreds of new ponds.
Scientists hope this method could be used globally as pond building is simple and effective.
