Replying to @amandadeibert
My head of department told me that over his dead body would he ever appoint a woman to the faculty. He’s dead, I’m a Distinguished Professor

- Replying to @HeyDrDukes and @FutureDrDukesPlease report to your grad Dean. As a former @UofCalifornia grad dean, one of my biggest frustrations and sadnesses was when students suffered injustices in silence and never asked for help.
- Clearly a view from their side, but now I’m finally watching #HarryandMeghan I feel that some harm was really done to them
- Sorry for all of the subterfuge. It’s official - so delighted to announce that I have joined @UCDavisMed UC Davis School of Medicine names new vice dean for research health.ucdavis.edu/health-news/ne…
- Understand this has caused a firestorm in the UK. It is simply a very moving tribute and perfect for Father’s Day. A Father's Day Gift From Meghan To Harry Is Now A Kids' Book npr.org/2021/06/20/100…
- This is terrifying. Brown advises all international community members to postpone, reconsider travel
- @PeterHotez is a hero! Thanks for tackling the important topic of attacks on science and scientists, @NewsHour
- So excited on my first day @UCDavisMed - I’m really looking forward to leveraging the great and unique strengths of the Med school and the @ucdavis main campus to support research advances for all in this diverse community- and I feel so welcomed
- So jazzed to be recognized today by @AmerGastroAssn! Would not have expected this in a million years.
- Growing up poor left me isolated in academia—until I began to share my story science.org/content/articl…. Important story about the “hidden minority” in academia. We need to avoid assuming all have access to the cultural curriculum #firstgen #firstgenfaculty
- Postdoc life: Less responsibilities than the professors, more independence than the grad students. Quite honestly, it was probably the best time of my life from a scientific standpoint.
- Reassuring stance from @NIH leaders including @NIHDirector. Point of View: Applied research won’t flourish without basic science
