Interested in #scicomm and looking for a conference. Join the best minds at #SciTalk22 either in person or virtually to learn all the ways to bring science to the people! #sciart #sciencetwitter

@EricSpinetti That is so flipping cool! I have been playing with the app since I saw this and my science doesn't seem to come out quite as pretty, but I guess nether did my research 😂

[Katie Hollis @Katie_CellChick]

Is it writer's block or just an inability to focus? Either way I've only managed to successfully finish one sentence this morning #dissertation #writing #MondayMorning

Thesis committee meeting time 🤞#phdlife #AcademicChatter #anxiety

[Katie Hollis @Katie_CellChick]

Our department is looking to hire a grant writer ASAP. If you have experience with grants and know anything about cell biology/signaling you should check it out! Let me know if you have questions. #AcademicChatter #sciencejobs #writingcommmunity

[Williams Lab - VARI @WilliamsLab_VAI]

The Department of Cell Biology at VAI has an opening for a Scientific Grant Writer.

We are super excited to have you. I'm looking forward to have a while new lab to nerd out over #wnt with! 🤓

[Stephanie Grainger @sgraingerPhD]

I’m super stoked to announce that this summer, The Grainger Lab will be heading to the @VAInstitute! We will be recruiting for fully funded positions at all levels. If you’re interested in #stemcells, #zebrafish, #cancer and #Wnt, drop me a line!

[Katie Hollis @Katie_CellChick]

I do miss the days of summer break and having an end in sight for projects! Sunburn was much easier to cope with than burnout. #PhDlife #AcademicMentalHealth

[Dr. Angry Grad @GradSkoolStrugs]

I am mentally, physically, and emotionally exhausted from this past academic year and yet many of us graduate students don't have a definitive "end of the semester." We are still working to meet research and department deadlines, long after the undergraduates are free.

[Katie Hollis @Katie_CellChick]

@PhD_Genie @OpenAcademics Currently, as a PhD candidate, YES! When I introduce myself, I am a PhD student & mom. It consumes so much of my life that I see it as a big part of who I am. Hopefully, someday soon, I will look back and be able to see it as more of an experience.

Calling all #WomeninSTEM: My former high school @IndianaAcademy has a May Term class looking at bias & discrimination in STEM fields. Help them see the #STEMinist perspective & fill out their survey: https://t.co/Fd5FHV5VbX

My lab @WilliamsLab_VAI put out a great #Wnt review this past week! Go check it out for some updated #DataMining and literature analysis of contradictory findings on #APC and #Lrp6 interaction in #coloncancer

@AuzeenMendoza @Momademia I have two, one we adopted during the 1st year of my PhD and the other at the end of my 4th year. We both want more, but I have decided that I at least need the ok to write up my thesis before I try again. Being pregnant and pulling crazy hours in the lab do not work.

[Katie Hollis @Katie_CellChick]

Check out this #conference and it's great line up of speakers! #phdlife #AcademicTwitter #BrainTumorAwarenessMonth #neurotwitter #cancerresearch

[Origins of Cancer @OriginsVAI]

Our first speaker for 2021 #VAIOrigins @VAInstitute is Dr. Douglas Hanahan. Famous for his paper “The Hallmarks of Cancer”, he is currently Director of the Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research @EPFL_en in Switzerland, where he studies organ-specific #cancer models.

You know your an #AcademicMom when your multitasking is feeding the baby with one hand and aligning #DNA sequences with the other, all while hoping you don't get oatmeal all over the computer. #WomeninSTEM #PhDlife #PhDMomlife

I was literally just using this cheat sheet when the tweet showed up in my newsfeed #irony #GirlsWhoCode

[OpenAcademics @OpenAcademics]

Data visualization in R? Here is a great cheat sheet for ggplot2 that hopefully can be useful. Please share🙌 #AcademicTwitter #phdchat #Bioinformatics

[U.S. FDA @US_FDA]

Today, FDA expanded the EUA for the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine for the prevention of #COVID19 to include adolescents 12-15 years of age. FDA amended the EUA issued on Dec. 11, 2020 for administration in individuals 16 years of age and older. https://t.co/3ROLW8WXwL

[Origins of Cancer @OriginsVAI]

Our July 22, 2021 #VAIOrigins @VAInstitute Keynote speaker is Dr. Suzanne Baker @StJudeResearch. Her groundbreaking work includes the discovery of #TP53 mutations and the co-discovery of #histone mutations in human #cancer. Her lab studies pediatric #gliomas. #WomeninSTEM

[Origins of Cancer @OriginsVAI]

Introducing our 2021 #VAIOrigins @VAInstitute student organizers: Emery Haley @EmeryHaley2, Joe Floramo & Nadia Dehghani @DehghaniNadia! Join our virtual symposium with outstanding speakers, posters, & professional development opportunities #gradchat #phdchat #AcademicChatter

@EricSpinetti @BaileyTibben After I tweeted this, I was having vivid dreams about pilot episodes with @SteveTriezenbe1 and @EricSpinetti playing the leading roles of "The Lab" 🎬🤣

[Katie Hollis @Katie_CellChick]

Love this idea! I've got all sorts of lab stories that could be turned into a comedy, while doing some sly #scicomm!

[PhD Hires @PhDhires]

Hear me out. The Office but “The Lab” series. With all the ridiculous academia stories, we could write 10 seasons in no time for @NetflixFilm
