According to my work email analytics, over the last month I read 49 emails between the hours of 3 & 4 am (and sent 1). I know I do this, but it's wild seeing the numbers. Anyone else find these analytics eye-opening?

Yes! The #syllabus as we know it needs an overhaul.

Took a break from the Twitter for a minute and whoa. Everything looks different now and I'm too old for all this change! ���

I would love to know what you are doing to positively impact DEI in your classroom (or lab, or wherever). Share your thoughts!

Contemplating the changes necessary to advance DEI in academia can be overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. @LindseyInTheLab shares small changes you can make to impact DEI in the classroom.

This is a real concern & many lab professionals are already discussing this. If demand exceeds available supplies, & it sort of already has, then what? Has your lab discussed this & found any viable solutions?

@StevenCottenPhD @ASCP_Chicago Like several others in this thread, I am a member of ASCP and ASCLS and I believe we need to work together to start addressing the issues. I frequently encourage people to join one or both organizations and get involved. That's how we're going to make it happen.

[Lindsey in the Lab @LindseyintheLab]

@StevenCottenPhD @ASCP_Chicago ASCP collaborated with U of Washington and recently released this report. https://t.co/mmyz32hrmL
It includes discussion about what we need to do to address staffing issues. Does it fix it? No. But it's a start. @ASCP_Chicago

Fantastic thread on President Biden's plan to combat the spread of COVID-19 & variants. Check it out for a nice summary of what's included (plus some thoughts on what's not included but maybe should be).

1/ @POTUS Biden's 6-point Delta plan has much of what I've been wanting to see:

Making use of the ENTIRE toolbox against COVID, including but not limited to vaccines.

Here's a summary and some comments:

I love a good immunology figure. Immunology can be a tough subject, but there are some great figures here! Check it out!

This week's #micromeded explores the world of immunology. The figure below depicts B-cell development with the corresponding molecular and cellular changes. This week is a #micromeded x #hemebytes crossover. Enjoy!

This is an important 🧵 full of important information that bears repeating. Over and over again. We must bring more visibility to the medical laboratory professions!

There is great value in #Internships for recruiting the next generation of #ClinicalLabProfessionals. This article examines how you can recruit and retain these individuals. @odie0222 https://t.co/z9Hhd8M5Wp

A team made up of a variety of personalities, age groups, cultures, education, experience, etc. can also bring creativity and a broad range of ideas to the table. Diversity = Success

Well. I feel attacked.

@MedicalLabLadyG I can't hear your sobbing over my own sobs. 😂 The struggle is so real. But also rewarding. Most of the time. 😅

It's that time, y'all!
