Starting to think that being sent to conferences is a ploy by my PI to keep me in academia.

Me at the end of every meeting: I think I want to do a postdoc??!

It's so wild that we can "see" molecules now. Humans can do so many amazing things when we're not being miserable monsters to each other. I have hope tho.

Confessions of a Drosophilist:

If there’s an important cross with flies stuck in the food, I will fish them out, give them a water droplet bath, dry them with a Kimwipe, and put them in a new vial.

Anyone else?

[Dr. Jasmine @jplayshooky]

@joshdubnau @Rob_Veline Or a low rate recombinant male 🥲

[Dr. Jasmine @jplayshooky]

@CampbellShelagh Yes! That’s why I keep doing it :)

Hi #ScienceTwitter . What are some tools/resources you found very helpful or wish you had for writing your dissertation?

[Dr. Jasmine @jplayshooky]

Literally just laughed out loud.

[Dr. Jasmine @jplayshooky]

Want this!!!

[Dennis Sun @Mezarque]

I designed another #LEGO set inspired by the "model" organisms of biological research!

This time, it's the tiny but mighty fruit fly #Drosophila melanogaster, which researchers have used to study all manner of biological processes.

@inespatop You are so sweet 🥹

[Dr. Jasmine @jplayshooky]

Any #drosophila #neuroscience researchers out there that can help me with EPAC experiments? Struuuggling over here, even with forskolin.
