@CornelyKathleen Glad you are okay!
I’m happy to share that I have transitioned from academia to education in an industry setting. Today I started my new role as an Academic Genomics Field Application Scientist (New England) at Bio-Rad Laboratories! https://t.co/MZDfFZy926
@CM_Pina Or I should say, I think so?
@CM_Pina Yep

The CGC is hiring! 3 positions available. We are looking for an experienced worm picker (to prep orders), a worm injector (CRISPR-engineered transgenic strains & KOs for a related research project), and a general lab tech (prep orders, make media, outcross & balance new strains).
@Bali_Maha @RissaChem And more reflection than self assessment.
@Bali_Maha @RissaChem And feedback and self-assessment. I'm excited to utilize a portfolio-based approach with a defined set of goals for the semester that incorporates verbal and written feedback/interaction with the instructor. No quizzes, no exams.
I love this chart that @RissaChem created - and if you want more of what she has to say about Ungrading, join us in #MYFest22 for the Ungrading as Emancipation track:

@RachaelEBee Thanks for the tip about purchasing stake flags at Home Depot!
Last week Briana Nuay planted apples in several soil locations around Providence. The goal is to attract bacteria-eating worms to survey the local nematode population. @ProvidenceCol @FriarBiology
