@organomimetic @UCLA Omg?! I can't believe we didn't get an alert.

Being a great mentor requires taking the focus off of ourselves and recognizing:
-the people we mentor are not us
-what worked for us may not work for them
-just because we dealt with something doesn’t mean they should have to also

"It pains me to think how many people are kept out of science not for a lack of talent, but because they didn’t excel at a standardized test."

Grad schools need to see beyond standardized tests, a Ph.D. candidate argues in this #ScienceWorkingLife. https://t.co/V86wPic9xG

Are you sad and angry about the surge in anti-Asian violence? Wondering if there’s something anti-racist you can do? One idea: learn how pronounce Asian names! It doesn’t have to be perfect. Just try, and it will make a difference to your Asian friends and people you meet. (1/8)

Our latest article in @ACSDivCHED on how to teach scientific literacy & critical thinking in a chemistry GE course. Enjoyed putting together this course with @organomimetic! Shoutout to Nick (grad TA), Christine, Tina, & Leah (undergrad LAs). #chemtwitter

@organomimetic Can't imagine what Enter Sandman sounds like as a lullaby 😂 I should check this out.
