3) What can you do differently to ensure inclusion?

Ultimately, what do you want to see in environmental education, or your particular field?

[Pearl Lam @wpearllam]

Amazing keynote last night at #AAEE2019 by Dr. Centáe Richards @DrCentae on expanding diversity and inclusion in environmental education. Thank you for such an inspiring talk. #WeAreEE

[Pearl Lam @wpearllam]

Here are just a few questions from the talk that struck me, and I find important to think about: 1) Who is not included in the work that you do? 2) What could contribute and how do you contribute to this exclusion?

For this #FossilFriday I'm uploading videos and pics on how to section fossil plants permineralized in calcarous rock using the cellulose acetate peel technique. Thread.

This is perhaps my favorite slide from my biochemistry class so far. In light of today’s Nobel Prize in Chemistry, today seems fitting for a lecture on protein evolution I would think ☺️ #DirectedEvolution #TreeofLife🌳

2. Deliver the message such that you could imagine your reader having a worthwhile learning experience.
3. Goes with point 2- Writing is not about showing off what you know, but rather what you want the reader to take away.

[Pearl Lam @wpearllam]

As a young writer drafting grants and papers for the first time, I have learned several important lessons thanks to my supportive peers and faculty here UA MCB. Just a few tips that have dramatically changed my writing process...

[Pearl Lam @wpearllam]

1. Think hard about the purpose of your sentences, and whether they truly convey what you are trying to say.

Our incoming MCB & Astrobiology undergrad Sofia Jacobson did an amazing job this summer studying the origins of life under the mentorship of grad student Pearl Lam. So proud of my lab’s hard work this summer and looking forward to the new semester!

Kacar Astrobiology Lab Fall 2018. Excited for the new semester, onward!
