Really annoyed that Google maps doesn’t have the half marathon road closures marked. I obviously could have looked them up, but aren’t these things usually marked?

[Allison Mayle @allison_mayle]

The Grand Opening of @DNALC NYC at City Tech was today! It was wonderful to have so many supporters in this beautiful new space. So excited to expand our work in Brooklyn!

[Allison Mayle @allison_mayle]

@knit1write2 @varindersingh24 Same! Still wearing a mask and just bought more because of Delta + teaching in person…I’m going to be masking for a long time.

[Allison Mayle @allison_mayle]

@StephTheBlogger Oh no 😫 I hope he recovers quickly and the rest of you stay well 💕

[Allison Mayle @allison_mayle]

@sasha_ban Thank you for passing the info on!

[Allison Mayle @allison_mayle]

NYC high school students can enroll in these FREE courses and apply to our mentored research program in the fall! Please share with interested students - we just added 2 more weeks that we’d like to “fill” (to current capacity)

[DNA Learning Center @DNALC]

Due to high demand, we've added two more FREE UBRP prep courses at the Harlem DNA Lab this summer! NYC High School students interested in mentored research can learn more and register here: https://t.co/1zFw96ir5P

I’ve found that the vast majority of 6th-12th graders I’ve taught this summer are totally fine with wearing masks. But for anyone (kid or adult) looking for mask options that avoid ears, check out this thread 👇🏻

[Dr Ellie Murray, ScD @EpiEllie]

Anyone out there have design ideas for face masks that avoid ears, for people with sensitivities?

[Allison Mayle @allison_mayle]

I’m teaching DNA Barcoding next week and I use Brassica oleracea as an example of “looks can be deceiving”, so this made me 🤣

[Mark Hibbins, Great Lakes Swashbuckler @reject_resubmit]

Brassica, Brassica, Brassica, Brassica

[Cientifico Latino, Inc. @cientificolatin]

I gave a talk today, in person. It was so strange, but also nice to do something so “normal” again.

[Allison Mayle @allison_mayle]

Have I not Tweeted about our puppy?!? This is Potato, he’s about 5 months old and weighs about 5.5 lbs. he’s a chihuahua mix - we’re going to do a dog DNA test to find out what other breed(s) he is 🧬

[Allison Mayle @allison_mayle]

@StephTheBlogger The founders never intended for the first dose to become a public school ... 😂
