THANK YOU Ang & Yini for the food, the gifts, teaching us about the festival and for celebrating with us. It was a truly exceptional lab meeting and we’re so grateful that you are here to share your culture with us. 🙏🏻 🧧🧨🐀🥟🐲🇨🇳

This was inspired by @Whitaker_Lab member Yini sharing her recipe of coffee AND tea!! Check it out! #SocialDistancing #CoffeeChat #ALLTHECAFFEINE!! 😅😅😅

We're absolutely starting to see this in our community of scientific community managers - members are being asked by their orgs to give demos of remote working software, to help set up new ways of meeting, & to teach others about engagement etc.

Yesterday Ang & Yini cooked the lab the most delicious feast to celebrate the Chinese Spring Festival! The food was incredible, and we learned so much from their presentation on the history of new year rituals.

The spring festival is the largest annual migration. 300,000,000 train tickets were sold in a few days when they were released in December. https://t.co/Z7vyAn9Agb

We’re thinking of everyone in Wuhan and Hubei province who aren’t able to spend time with their family this year.

Our lab holiday dinner was fantastic! @KonradWagstyl was photographer but you can see @IslaStaden @Maxi_Macki @PHerterich @sophieadler Yini @drsarahlgibson @yoyehudi @kirstie_j & @abc782544421! We missed Georgia @MalvikaSharan Louise & @emdupre_ 🌺

Happy holidays everyone! ☃️🎄

[Patricia Herterich @PHerterich]

On a day like this, stuff like that makes me despair even more. But I know I'm blessed with a network of amazing people and I will get to see some of them tomorrow at the @Whitaker_Lab dinner and that's what will get me through the day today ❤️ Today is a day to show kindness!

Google summer of code is over! This year the lab had two students working with us on #scona🍪 and #tedana🎉. Thank you @wingedRuslan and Monica for all your great work! @gsoc #GSOC

[Whitaker Lab @Whitaker_Lab]

We worked together over the summer, @kirstie_j was the primary mentor but @IslaStaden, @taylor_salo and Josh Teves did much more work reviewing PRs, answering questions, figuring out the bugs🐛 along the way. #GSOC #tedana🎉 #scona🍪
