Just another day at work, googling “fish anus” 🧪🦑🏆

(Before it starts,

Do you ever think “Professor X makes teaching/presenting look easy but it doesn’t feel easy to me, so I must not be Professor material”? Banish that thought!!! 1) teaching is not easy for the Prof. They have to prep/read/learn/re-learn before teaching most things… 🦑🧪

When requesting letters of recommendation, give the prof at least 2 weeks lead time, and send them an email asking if they can write you a strong letter. Include your resume/CV and a reasonable draft of your app materials, a description of what you’re applying to & how to submit their letter 🧪🦑

Forgot some key emojis when this was posted :) 🧪🦑

it's wild that R, the ubiquitous statistical computing language, was co-created by a Māori prof (Ross Ihaka) — and yet the vast majority of scientists who use R don't know

this is like inventing the toaster. possibly the largest impact of a single member of an indigenous community on modern science

Are you a data creator/user in #metagenomics or other #omics? We’re working on standards for fair data reuse and would like your feedback. We welcome contributions by scientists from all career stages. 5-min anonymous survey here: shorturl.at/NOUW2 Please RT!

Undergrads and all later career stages - when applying for external research funding (ie not from the university you attend) - ALWAYS send an email to the pre-awards grant specialist for your dept saying what grant you’re applying for and include a link. 🧪🦑

Agreed! The panel interface went out 2 times on my last one

Thanks I will check this out!!

Had a meeting with a mentee through the @icrs.bsky.social mentoring program yesterday and am still thinking about our conversation. She said some really wise and inspiring things. Grateful to know her, and glad the mentorship program was started!

I went to few office hrs for v few courses as an undergrad. I thought the only reason to go was for a specific ? on course material. I wish I’d known it was helpful/ok to go get to know the prof. This seems obvious now but at the time I was intimidated & didn’t think a prof would want to talk w me

“Why not me?” Is a powerful question to ask yourself. Someone is going to get that thing you’re applying/trying for. Why not you? Repeatedly visualize yourself achieving your goal, in different specific ways. 🦑🧪

Post docs (and grad students): Have a zoom interview for a faculty position? Lots of great ideas here: theprofessorisin.com/2011/10/31/t... Don’t be surprised if they ask very general/basic questions (that they could glean answers to from your application materials). 🦑🧪

Early career and giving a poster at #SICB2024? Email a few relevant researchers that you’d like to meet and invite them to visit your poster! This is a great way to connect and the poster content will give you some extra talking points 🧪🦑

Postdocs- when you start in a new lab, if your PI or the dept doesn’t invite you to give a seminar, ask about it! It will help you make connections, friends, collaborations and can go on your CV.

Anyone know if undergrad students and postbacs are using Bluesky? 📚 Any rec on the channels these folks are using etc?

A scientist studies a research rig. He is pensive and contemplative, with his chin on his fist, observing. He's a handsome young man wearing a suit and tie, with closely cropped hair.

Let's talk about Ernest Everett Just, a cell biologist who unraveled the mysteries of fertilization in spite of the obstacles he faced as an African-American.

Just's story weaves together good, rigorous science with racism & tragedy.

He was born in 1883 in seaside Charleston, South Carolina.
