- As a microbiologist, I’m just letting you know you should always flush with the toilet seat closed.
- Kodak is using the 765 million to invest it in hydroxychloroquine manufacturing. This represents 5-year funding for >400 academic labs studying things like virology, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer's, mental health, immunology, AMR, stroke, etc. YOU SHOULD BE OUTRAGED.
- Replying to @blacksciblogWow, this blew up. I don’t have a sound cloud but I do run a national summer research program for underrepresented minority undergraduates in STEM called nsurp.org @NSURPorg. Here is a donate link tinyurl.com/DonateNSURP :)
- SHUT UP!!! There is a Netflix series called Cells at Work and the first episode is called Pneumococcus!!!! Oh I'm live tweeting this!!
- Today my graduate student finished running experiments that demonstrated one of the major hypotheses of the lab was incorrect. The first thing I did was congratulate him on running well thought out experiments. The data is the data.
- God, I hate this pandemic. It has really dented my faith in humanity.
- Promotion to Associate Professor with Tenure has been approved. Thank you to my family for support, my lab for making this a reality, and to everyone else who provided letters, advice, prayers, a shoulder, a review, and any other help that got me get to this point.
- I have just hit the 4 year mark of being a professor. No long chain, just a bit of advice. Treat people like people, protect your mental health, be a constructive reviewer, and follow the data instead of trying to control where it goes. Oh, and dont be a jerk, definitely that.
- To be clear, if Black people did this, they'd have been shot dead.
