@DrMozzieFhal @McGrawLab @SukLanSer @BucknellU @penn_state @seslower Thanks again and I'm glad you got some pictures - when we got home we realized we were so focused on the awesome 🦠🦟 research we forgot to take any pics!!

[Moria Chambers @moriacc]

Our @BucknellU students got a chance to tour the @mcgrawlab today and learn all about their amazing research (and be envious of their awesome infectious disease research center!!)

Thanks you for a great visit - you inspired many of our undergrads!!

Twitterverse - seeking help on identifying a journal/format for a short conservation story (like 1 -2 figs). Suggestions?

[Moria Chambers @moriacc]

It's been amazing to see the progress you can make in one semester even when this is their very first biology class. And I'd love to learn more about what other school are doing!!

[Moria Chambers @moriacc]

Science Twitterverse: Can you help me collect examples of 1st year CUREs that are required for your majors? Standalone/lecture affiliated? Common topic/instructor specific? Size? Time/week?

@CURENet1 @MartineBotany @G_Pask @ProfKenField @Brain_daddy_PhD @helpmedrzaius

[Moria Chambers @moriacc]

@CURENet1 @MartineBotany @G_Pask @ProfKenField @Brain_daddy_PhD @helpmedrzaius @BucknellU Biology we just finished year two of requiring a 1st year CURE for all Biology majors - standalone (no lecture), instructor specific topics with up to 16 students per section, 4-5 hour a week in lab.

It's been so rewarding for all the reasons #CUREs are awesome!

📢 Late opportunity for CS TT job @ PUI
If you're someone who wished primarily-undergrad institutions didn't run searches so early in the fall... this is for you.

@BucknellU is running an open-rank search for CS faculty NOW.
🗓️ Deadline March 20

Previewing @Drea_Drby 's poster at #DROS23 and she does an amazing job dissecting the impact of sugar on infection!! Encourage you all to come check in our today!

[Moria Chambers @moriacc]

@gutbacteria @gutbacteria will you be at #DROS23? It would be great to catch up!

[Moria Chambers @moriacc]

@gutbacteria Thanks John! And yes, lots of awesome undergrads ❤️

[Moria Chambers @moriacc]

Our new paper on how chronic infection improves both tolerance and resistance to future infections in fruit flies is out!

Check out the awesome work of undergrads @BucknellCAS ! Another collaborative effort with @OGilani14 involving many students.

Excited about our @G_Pask @EarthMechanic new preprint - the winter firefly pheromone that we identified is effective both in the field and the lab...males persist, even when the footing is a bit unstable (understatement). #FireflyFriday #teamFIREmones
