Microbial scientist and oceanographer at heart. Innovator in Microbial Products for sustainability & health. Fruit forager, cheese maker and froyo lover
Terrific job opportunity in the new Oceans Department here at Stanford. The call is broad - marine microbio and biogeochem are definitely within scope. @stanforddoerr https://t.co/fhaMTxx8rH
I made a thiiiing. This was the fastest idea-to-prototype cycle I have ever done. One week from "yo i need an emergency build of a custom device" to an 8 channel 940nm turbidometer for bacterial growth curves. Under $100 in parts. Takes about an afternoon to build once printed.
Amateur biological research as escapism with societal benefit as a byproduct. Learn about the natural world, generate new knowledge, explore your personal curiosities, and publish your findings for the benefit of us all. Not a terrible way to spend one's free time...
@AdamMGrant@milanicreative It’s time to get over the societal norms we grew up. Start by prioritising our health, mental and physical, and the rest will find their position in our priorities’ list :)
Happy #DNADay! It’s been 20 years since the Human Genome Project hit an important DNA milestone–sequencing 90% of the human genome. Thanks to better technology, the final 10% was officially sequenced just last year. Read more: https://t.co/tDfUlqYMQg
@subsurface_life I hear you lady! it is not always a given that every day randomness needs to take more out of you just because you happen to be the only woman around.!
Glowscopes may have research applications, but we are most excited for possibilities in K-12 education and outreach. At ~ $30-50 per device it is possible to equip entire classrooms. Kids can enjoy learning Punnett squares by viewing live glowing animals, etc. Many possibilities
@AdairLBorges@racheljdutton Adaptable microbial oceanographer working on multi-disciplinary approaches to link bacterial community structure and ecosystem function...drawn to study the mysteries of microbial ecosystems with @ArcadiaScience! 🦠DM me for follow up...
Yep the pattern of behavior is: intimidating young faculty, their own students and postdocs; inappropriate relationships with students; highly questionable scientific practices (w/ plausible deniability) and NO service unless there’s a direct benefit to them. Get rid of them!
