The best feeling ever is when you check on the intestinal stem cells you plated 🧫 yesterday and they’re the most beautiful #organoids 😌...It’s so true when they say science 🧪🧬 is like magic ✨🦄✨but real

My obligatory “I’m applying #IRad this year” 🩻

I probably have a personality, but also a PhD in ablation #Histotripsy so I’m a tad dedicated to being a #FutureRadRes

@DRradcats @AspiringDrDr You already are a Doctor #PhD - I said you look like you almost made it! Glad we got to catch up today 😄

I’m a passionate PhD microscopist looking for my next adventure in industry/academia after a great first postdoc. I am very grateful to @BeattyLab for giving me the opportunity to expand my skills and branch into a new field of science! I received my PhD…

[Holly Morrison, PhD @HollyM_Science]

Very excited to see the coverage from Virginia Tech on the last paper I have published from my PhD! We performed these studies with the hopes it would have a translational impact and are excited by the promise NIK may have as a potential therapeutic target 🔬🧬✨

Researchers at #VMCVM have identified a new pathway for potentially treating colorectal cancer. This discovery could lead to better therapies with fewer side effects. https://t.co/955rR9jX2S

Very excited to have met @NCIDirector and learn about the research experiences that got her to this leadership position! Thank you for all your advice today 🧬

#OTD in 1912, First Lady Helen Taft & the Viscountess Chinda, wife of the Japanese Ambassador, planted the first 2 cherry trees next to the Tidal Basin. Over the years, more trees were planted throughout #WashingtonDC and the #cherryblossom festival became a spring tradition. 🌸

The most successful people I know are really good at compartmentalization of what they can control and cannot. And when they find the things they can control, they architect the heck out of it and usually knock it out of the park

Cookies to remind my stats students that they are each “statistically significant” to me. Thank you @vijisathy for the fun idea!

[Holly Morrison, PhD @HollyM_Science]

@ivancedric_a I was just as surprised as you haha!

[Holly Morrison, PhD @HollyM_Science]

@indigoglow_ Finding and landing a postdoc position I was beyond excited to start. As much as I wanted to throw in the towel preparing for my defense this is what kept me motivated 🌠

In the mood to be amazed? Here's the immune cell response to a scratch in the zebrafish epidermis.

2 weeks into my #PostDoc @theNCI 🧬🧫 and I feel very fortunate to be working in a great lab under the mentorship of @Ramiroyglesias studying skin stem cell biology. Excited to see where this journey takes me!

[Waisman Lab @ariwaisman]

Israeli PIs in the field of Immunology: I can host a few foreign students or postdocs that had to leave so that their work can continue. Just write me an email, this is the least I can do.

You can be kind and compassionate AND successful. Remember, in lifting others, we rise ourselves.

Mentoring 👇🏽
When selecting a research lab for your training, it is critical to prioritize mentoring.

[Dr. Arnaldo Díaz @ADiaz_PhD]

Being the 1st in your family to go to college is a huge accomplishment & you must be proud of it.

Here I share with you some of the lessons I learned on my path from first-gen student to an academic leadership role.
