Here it is! When cells loose their balance: Our LIVE interview with the amazing @AngelikaAmon at a local bar, in collaboration with @SITNBoston
Angelika takes through her group's work on aneuploidy, cell fitness, and cancer! https://t.co/iLupq7laj4
We'll be at this live event hosted by @SITNBoston, part of the @CambSciFest! We'll chat about reporting and educating about science topics, using the (super fun) virtual Gather platform. Register here: https://t.co/QW0dAIwimZ
Our chat with @mit_cmsw prof Alan Lightman is up! Have a listen to him and @timisstuck discuss the (pre-COVID) world of science history, science fiction, and writing. https://t.co/hbI6uRgbM1
Norbert Wiener's famous statement on the dawn of the computing age is a joy to revisit, no coding skills required :)
Coming up on @glimpsepodcast Alan Lightmant and I discuss a great blind spot of scientific training: learning the history of your field.
How do you draw the line between "scientifically relevant" vs "extracurricular" reading? What sorts of nonscientific books should a scientist read? How important is it that you learn about the history of your own field?
We will also be blessed with superstar podcaster, @ElahFeder, for the panel tomorrow #cellbio2020. She and Annie Minoff made @undiscoveredpod, and their episode on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome was absolutely revelatory: https://t.co/hPWeSVlAg8
Our podcasting panel at #cellbio2020 will feature a talented MD/PhD student Bejan who coproduces @behindthescope_. He and the team tell the how and the why of successful scientists and physicians. My recent favorite is "calculated fearlessness":

Tomorrow's panel on podcasting at #cellbio2020 will feature several amazing podcasters. Here is my favorite recent episode from @CaraSantaMaria of @TalkNerdy_Pod, all about books bounds w human skin 🥳🥳🥳 https://t.co/yWFWOn8ERG
MIT student newspaper @thetech remembers renowned @MITBiology professor Angelika Amon, who mentored over 80 students & researchers in 20 years and sadly passed away recently. @kochinstitute@WhiteheadInst https://t.co/0rlG7T6q71
Angelika's discussion of this question also highlighted the differences between what we can test in mice vs what we see in humans. We can track fetal development for any trisomy in mice and mark where it fails. In humans we only know the final outcome.

It was hard not to know Angelika Amon in our department. She was boisterous, funny, and fought fiercely for good science. As a coproducer of @glimpsepodcast naturally I asked her to join us for a live event. She said yes! https://t.co/hUfi7dxKTm
