I need people to understand how difficult it is to get an NIH grant. You spend months writing a proposal, following strict guidelines that include a detailed multiyear budget, bios of everyone on your team, plans for participant safety & ethical conduct. Then you send it off -1/n

Had a nice lab BBQ gathering last week and bid farewell to our beloved visiting student Yi-Ting as she returned to Taiwan. Luckily it did not rain until we were leaving. ☀️

A big thanks to Ariana for treating us homemade Chinese food on her last day before she transitions to the Doctor of Plant Medicine (DPM) @ufplantdoctors program. We'll miss you in the lab and your smile!

@ashleymkopec Admire your bravery in the career transition. Two yrs into TT, also got a newborn (2nd child) and shortly after, COVID hit. 2020-21 were very rough, but got my R award in 2022. As a father, I can only imagine how difficult it is for academic moms. Thanks for sharing your story!
