Impactful words by @CarolynBertozzi today on how diversity in her trainees enabled creativity, not playing by the rules, and ultimately the work that built the field of bioorthogonal chemistry. Diverse science leads to better science!

Congratulations to the new Biology Chair. Great listener. Guaranteed to be supportive. Don't sit on this rising star!

One of the pleasures of running a training research lab is working with smart, talented undergraduates like Mia Hoover @miahoov23, Tiffany Riascos, and Cameron Prince, who each presented a poster of their work this semester. Congrats you three!

Mark your calendars! Congrats to @meganbrienne for being selected to give a talk at UNC's Celebration of Undergraduate Research on May 3rd #ProudMentor

Check out UNC’s Celebration of Undergraduate Research on May 3rd! Very excited to have been selected to give a synchronous talk on my research in the @DuronioLab during the second session (4-5pm) 🥳

For those into chromatin and development, @markus_nevil and @duronio_bob provide a preview of a wonderful paper from the @MannervikLab about H3K14ac and tissue specific gene expression. (And we hope the old timer yeast geneticists appreciate that title!)

Truly a @DuronioLab team effort! Shout out to @gene_marie_3 and @markus_nevil for all your help putting together the poster. Thank you to the organizers for giving me the opportunity to present my work and to all involved for an awesome symposium! #BranchingOut21
