Excerpt from article: “I get so proud when I see my lab members do something amazing,” she said. “Seeing students grow into scientists, fostering their pursuit for knowledge and helping them inspired me to pursue graduate studies.”

Interested in sharing your knowledge of micro? Our dept at Sac State is looking for adjunct instructors in gen micro, med micro/infect disease, and parasitology. Individuals with a Ph.D. related to these areas encouraged to enter the adjunct pool. DM me for app info. 🧪

@chill_Squid 😊 thank you Squid, I appreciate you

Disappointed hearing that at a conference meant to promote inclusivity another PI berated my undergrad student's poster and proceeded to call me a bad mentor. Reminder, this behavior has huge negative consequences for new trainees that are just excited for their first conference.

@EricSkaar @erin_r_green @UChicago_Micro Congrats Erin! Looking forward to seeing the awesome science from your lab!

[Chris Lopez @micro_clopez]

Looking forward to a productive summer with some talented undergrads! Here, Cassidy, recipient of a Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) award @sacstate, and Citlalli are investigating sporulation of commensal Clostridia 🦠in a low oxygen environment. 🧫

@jkimmey @ucsc Great activity, thank you for sharing!
