Anyone who wants to call scientific research “wasteful spending” should have to get past Reviewer 2.

Seriously, I wish people knew how hard we work for far less $ than could be made in industry, all because we care about helping society and mentoring the next generation.

We can’t always leave a toxic situation, but when we do, it is not running away or quitting.

It is intentionally considering the options and choosing something better for yourself.

The start of the academic year is a good time to revisit "How to get what you need from your Ph.D. or postdoc supervisor": https://t.co/pGgTouTI9K via @sciencemagazine #ProfDev

Looking forward to presenting this Friday and remembering my previous #StMU academic advisor, the late Dr. Jose Miguel Cimadevilla.

[StMU_U-RISE @StMU_URISE]

This Friday we welcome Dr. Ford to our first JMC Seminar of the semester! She is a #StMU alumna and the Assistant Director @UTHealthSA_OPA. Join us for an engaging seminar and light refreshments!

If you’re choosing a research group to join, pay just as much - if not more - attention to the culture and mentoring style in the group than the research.

You can succeed in lots of research areas or projects, but it’s tough to succeed in an unsupportive environment.

[Jen Heemstra @jenheemstra]

If you have a leadership job, then you also have a kindness job.

Yes, there is work to get done and goals to meet. But we also have a responsibility to leverage our authority and decision making capability to uphold human dignity.

Come out for this week's networking social and professional mixer. I'll be there, will you? :)

[Jen Heemstra @jenheemstra]

When it comes to grant and fellowship applications, rejection is several times more likely than success.

This means we should get to celebrate successes with several times the intensity with which we mourn failures.

It’s World Chocolate Day, and we’re excited to announce that we’re giving away our famous Sigma-Aldrich chocolate bottles!
