@KarenL_PhD Do you pull your own needles? Even though I successfully injected worms in grad school, we’re having a lot of trouble with our needles. Either we have a sharp tip but no liquid comes out, or they get broken just a bit too much trying to open them up. Tips?

It’s urchin week in Dev Bio lab!! My favorite :) Tomorrow we’ll collect gametes and observe fertilization. #TSUdevbio #devbio @TSU_Biology

@ScottPaulissen Is this a Brainbow experiment of some kind?

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

NOTICE OF AWARD!!!! We are finally getting a new fluorescent confocal microscope!!!

To put things in perspective, this was our fourth submission.

Never thought I would need to image worm sperm but here we are…

C. elegans male spermatids dissected by my summer student Trace and imaged using a 63x oil objective on a DIC scope.

Elsevier is losing editors

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

Brilliant

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

@chemkramer Oh man… I can’t remember either. That’s kind of wild.

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

My undergrad Ian and I successfully injected our first worm in the lab!

Come work with me! Please share with your grad students and postdocs that may be looking for positions at PUIs. We take ABD! #AcademicChatter #phdchat #BlackInSTEM

The #Biology dept @TrumanState is hiring a TT Plant Biologist. If you’re looking for a public liberal arts college where you’ll have small class sizes and great students and colleagues, this is the place for you! #Botany #PlantScience #Hirticulture @ASPB https://t.co/ijGOhTPyf1

This week's seminar is co-hosted by the Biology department and the STEP office. Join us to hear about primitive lactation in one of our favorite model organisms, C. elegans!

Interested in #UndergradResearch? Please check out the @NSF funded @ucdavis #SummerResearch programs for 2023! You’d get to come to UC Davis, make new connections, get paid to do research and live in the dorms! Check it out! Applications are open! https://t.co/ZGhMdHz89G

[Noah Snyder-Mackler @SMack_Lab]

Back for a 3rd year!

Are you an undergrad interested in genomics/bioinformatics?
We have paid @NSF #REU openings for the summer (2023)! You'll be able to work on research involving geladas, macaques, and dogs!.

Info & application here: https://t.co/GZu3JymK5h

Please RT/share!

@mike_feigin Maybe you should learn LaTex. I have colleagues who insist on it for our S-STEM grants because it typesets, so you can have fully justified without the weird spacing because it hyphenates words instead. It’s a big learning curve in my opinion.

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

@AzureBiosystems Well, we actually already bought one LOL

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

Any labs have an Azure 600 imager? Curious how long you have had it, if you’re happy with it, any major problems? #biochemistry #genetics #cellbiology

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

@TSU_Biology students!

[Mick Yoder @mick_yoder]

Funded Master’s opportunity using #xenopus to study cell sorting behavior in the early embryo. Please RT and share with your undergrads!

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

@ProfPhoebe @biodiversifying Thanks for sharing this!

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

@chemkramer Although I can’t help but point out that it looks like more mammalian cells than microbes… LOL Did I ever tell you Skep sent me a Christmas tree like this once with stained cells we did in Cell Bio?

[Stephanie Maiden @MaidenStephanie]

Early #FluorescenceFriday - mesmerizing!

[Anna C Cassidy @Anna_C_Cassidy]

Check out the beautiful microtubule network in this mitotic cell! @ZanicLab @VUCellImaging @VanderbiltCDB @NikonUSA
