Congratulations to Heather Walters, a Ph.D. candidate in Dr. Lesly Temesvari's biological sciences lab, who won 1st place graduate student oral presentation at the fall meeting of the South Carolina branch of the American Society for Microbiology! #ClemsonSCIENCE
Fascinating article about fighting the #COVID-19 "infodemic." Definitely changed my perspective a bit on the responsibility of #scientists to communicate with the public and with policy makers. #Science#scicomm#ScienceTwitter

Hyper-partisan #politics are a huge problem in the US. Can you spot the troll social media accounts fuelling this issue? Take the quiz! #disinformation#FakeNews

Although some may argue for a separation between #science and #politics, this year has seen unprecedented misuse of science for political ends. Scientists may play a stronger role in politics from here on out...

@VictorCasler For comedy, I would recommend @MBMBaM. Its kind of ridiculous humor, but there's over 500 1hr episodes so it's basically endless.
I've also been listening to American History Tellers @ahtellers, Pipettes & Politics from @ASBMB, and some @NPR podcasts.
Everyone depends on the USPS. Seniors for their Social Security, veterans for their prescriptions, small businesses trying to keep their doors open. They can't be collateral damage for an administration more concerned with suppressing the vote than suppressing a virus.
Registration for Day 1 of #ISSRDC 2020 Online Series on August 27 is now open!
Along with @astrosociety and @NASA, Day 1 will feature @space_station program updates and sessions highlighting the rise of an economy in low Earth orbit! Registration is free: https://t.co/PIh2WZnQAT
@runDRG Allegedly, the best training for laproscopic surgery is a holey box with a banana inside. So many fruits have been sacrificed for the cause of medicine.
What does #academia think of the new @NSF GRFP focus areas? I'm concerned that this is a step away from spirit of the fellowship, which should offer opportunities to underrepresented students across all the sciences. #Science#AcademicChatter

@JMZiermann 1) I'm a postdoc studying the quantitative genetics of substance abuse using fruit flies.
2) I got to buckle down and home my R programming.
After listening to #PipettesandPolitics from @ASBMB, I'm trying to get more familiar with #sciencepolicy and legislation. There's so much information out there that I never knew about! Today, I found this fact sheet on the house appropriations bill:
