PhD scientist using chemical biology to drug the proteome. NEU & Scripps alumna. Passions include: education outreach, felines, and fine food. Views are my own.

Last night I was honored to receive the 2025 #BreakthroughPrize in the Life Sciences, reflecting the efforts of many students, collaborators, doctors, and patients in labs around the world. I hope this 4-minute excerpt can inspire when science needs public support more than ever.

For reference, if these ultra rich people would have paid Kamalas Wealth Tax, it would have only cost them $36 billion *a year* instead of $500 billion in 2 days. 👍

Can a single Trump supporter tell me why cutting Alzheimer's research is good

It’s crazy how talking with a science buddy is simultaneously what’s most likely to move the project forward and the thing that’s least prioritized in our schedule.

It’s easy to operate a DEL platform, but it’s not as simple to find drug-like DEL hits. Excellent libraries and high quality proteins are an essential starting point!

Whoever compiled these “brutal” emails clearly never went to grad school 🥴

[Madni Aghadi @hey_madni]

Do you think your boss is scary?

Look at the brutal emails from the CEOs of Apple, Microsoft, Tesla and Facebook:

What a fun evening meeting & re-connecting with a great group of brilliant scientists. It was my first @WomenInTPD event & I am already looking forward to the next one!

[Danette Daniels @danetteldaniels]

So great to meet and network at the @WomenInTPD event tonight hosted by Triana Biomedicines! Thank you @KathleenSeyb for organizing and bringing us together ☺️

Happy to share this @ACSBioMed Perspective summarizing everything you need to know about covalent ligand discovery using #DEL

What a fun week with the @XChemInc team at our Montreal site. Incredible science, team-building, and some classic Canadian experiences ☺️

[Trader Lab @DJTraderLab]

Excited to get this preprint out!

I need someone to explain Carl Icahn to me ….

[Paige Dickson @SDS_Paige]

I think my micro-centrifuge may be possessed 😂

@DougKojetin @VandyBiochem @VUBasicSciences @VanderbiltCSB Congrats Doug, very well deserved!

[Paige Dickson @SDS_Paige]

There are very few things more satisfying than seeing high-res EM structures of a ligand you discovered in complex with its protein target 😍

[Paige Dickson @SDS_Paige]

6 years later, I’m excited to return to the GRC HTS Chem&ChemBio to present about DEL discovery. Less than 1 week until science summer camp!

[X-Chem @XChemInc]

Conference-goers can see the eye-opening talk Tuesday, Aug. 1 by X-Chem’s Paige Dickson: “Employing DNA-encoded Libraries to Identify Novel Chemical Equity for PPIs and Beyond.” https://t.co/Ia5HZ1nyNC

Super exciting to see @drughuntersite feature our DCAF1 ligand! DEL x ML is a powerful tool for small molecule hit finding @XChemInc #DrugDiscovery

@lstops Please tell me I am seeing Christoph Rader holding a microscope on the streets of NYC? 😂
