Remembering my undergrad physics prof who told our class he didn't think women should study physics.
Relishing the fact that my h-index is now larger than his ☺️

I just realized that it's not "impostor syndrome" it's trauma from people being awful.

1 of 15: It has been hard to convey, through anecdotes or data, how bizarre the U.S. housing market has become. For example, a Bethesda, Maryland homebuyer working with @Redfin included in her written offer a pledge to name her first-born child after the seller. She lost.

@DCrainium @graywhalegin I just splurged for my own birthday and it was totally worth it!!

I would love to hear from folks that are not using high stakes exams in their STEM courses. What types of assessments are you using? How have students responded? Please share successes and challenges!

Lots of people are shocked that a grant can be withdrawn for this, but NIH is very clear on the rules. Just because your application slips through the cracks once doesn't mean it will again!

@Astrenome I hope to be one among the sea of people who have said this: I also did not pass my first time. It lit a fire under me and I went on to pass, win a prestigious fellowship, and get my PhD. YOU GOT THIS! Let yourself mourn your first try and know you will kick ass on the second.

@NakedCapsid My PhD is in molecular biology, and I work as a grants consultant helping researchers get funded!

Correction: This piece states that "Immunology confuses even biology professors who aren’t immunologists," but it also confuses biology professors who are immunologists. The Atlantic regrets the error.

@KRBurgio Break your computer?

A Yale History professor told me to get tutoring for my “remedial English.” I’d already received Wright Prize for nonfiction & later that year, the Veech Prize for fiction, so I told him: “It’s not that I don’t know how to write; it’s that you don’t know how to read.” #Grammar

Colleges actin SHADY..."asking" profs to sign waivers to release them from liability.

Please know your rights before signing.

From a law prof: "Under no circumstances should anyone sign a waiver for harms and losses inflicted by COVID-19"

Us: Whew, tired of all these containment measures

Virus: Feeling good, feeling cute, ready for summer

the disturbing lack of time travellers arriving to stop 2020 happening suggests we never actually invent it

Toni Morrison said: When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need to free somebody else.

And so I used my 13 day old PhD to do that. #BlackLivesMatter #BlackScientistMatter

@magersandquinn Are you open for pick-up of online orders today?

As someone who struggles with anorexia, vegans describing their ultra-restrictive diet as a “movement” is deeply disturbing to me
