Sara and Avery use various experimental methods to study the gelatinous properties of comb jellies! 🪼

When I was an undergrad, I was a mentee in this same PEB summer program. Now 7 years (!) later, I’m so grateful to be a mentor to an undergrad in the same program! It’s been an absolute joy to work with Avery, and as always all love to @PEB_Yale 🤍

@thechrishan Let’s goooooooo congrats!!!!!!!

I'm the now former president of Yale's G+P Student Senate and I feel like I'll regret it if I don't say this now. I heard Yale is keeping students off the stage at its main commencement ceremony this year due to concerns about protesting. Hard to overstate Yale's cowardice. (1/4)

During our project work @stri_panama taxonomy course, we found that hydrozoans show diverse fluorescence patterns that can vary across life stage and species🪼Happy to see our little study out @BridgetSquidget @beroe @chipotlau @alexandeleon_

@nafun247 Congrats Nam!!! 🎉🎉

[Gabriel Monteiro da Silva @GMondaSilva]

Thrilled to share that our study on the prediction of conformational ensembles and relative state populations w/ modified AlphaFold is out in Nature Communications!

The study has changed considerably since its debut as a pre-print, so go check it out!

Never been so proud to be in MB&B at Yale 🫡 hahahaha

Top tier work @ThrashTalk lmao

Our notifications are blowing up with basketball tweets, but we are the Yale molecular biophysics and biochemistry account! You might want to tag @YaleMBasketball instead 🏀

Boola boola!

One aspect of disability not discussed often is how it can impact someone’s ability to drive, which becomes massively inconvenient (jobs requiring own transportation, access to grocery stores, is public transport accessible and reliable, etc.)

@Whitney_Lab @ecoevodevoir Omg the vans!!!! I love it

Join today at 4pm virtually (or irl, if you can) as Yale, though long overdue, honors Pennington and Crummell with degrees. Honored to be part of the procession and to help elevate their words today, and to have been part of the effort to make it happen.
