What a time to be alive to be able to take a real-time glimpse into the minds of scientists, scholars, innovators, researchers, activists, heros, advocates, writers, artists, & forces for good! Here to learn & humbled to be amongst you all (or y'all as we say in TX). 🧠🗣️👂🌱🌍
@dr_mellor Still want you to come to TCU & Ft. Worth for a visit! There is a famous unsolved case here of 3 missing girls (https://t.co/RqKYyvMAjl.?wprov=sfla1). These 3 families deserve answers & maybe you could help, Doc!

Y’all, our #COVID ICU unit is full. All of our ICUs are full. All of our ICU teams are flooded. Our ED is packed. We are turning away hospital transfers because there isn’t room. The #DeltaVariant is real. Masks work. Vaccines are safe and effective. Please get your vaccine!

🧵 A THREAD IN WHICH I REVIEW BEING BITTEN BY VARIOUS ANIMALS
1. GOAT 🐐
Overall a soft and gummy bite, often with a faint bouquet of fermented grain. Near-prehensile lips make the whole experience rather cute. Only downside is the painful accompanying headbutt. 4/5 stars.

A terminal cancer diagnosis has changed the arc of my career.
I'm winding down the lab, but VERY excited to launch a fundraising campaign to raise money for young scholars to participate in the Research Society on Alcoholism Annual Meeting.
