Cell Biology Education Consortium (CBEC)

Want to use @Twitter for sci communication in the classroom? CBEC faculty just published a paper in JMBE. More than Tweets for Undergraduate Student Researchers. Thanks to @mikemorrison for the idea. @arepscor @MicrobialPath @OBUNatSci journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/jm…

@GrageDustin Free speech and peaceful protests are protected by the constitution. Law enforcement and military are supposed to protect those rights, not bow to the president.

🚨 BREAKING: Minnesota State Patrol has issued a warning urging to NOT attend the “No Kings” protests today. Please listen to law enforcement folks. It’s not worth it. Stay safe.

@epadilla_jade Very nice!

In last Sunday’s newspaper I shared how the fountain of youth is in your telomeres and how having good relationships &support systems keeps them healthy. Thus, there’s are associations between relationships & telomeres which predict general disease risk. elnuevodia.com/ciencia-ambien…

Beautiful work and it is online and open, would be great for teaching @CellBioEd students what cells "really" look like.

First day of class, and I found out I didn't submit a textbook adoption for Cell Bio... time to make the @LibreTexts plunge.

@YoungShull Haaaa. You mean they really are not impressed with my papper from 1997! Ahh man.

Encouragement for today: Believe in yourself the way that spam predatory conference organizers believe in you.

Along with the new Cell Viability Cell Block, @Ouachita students made one on how to graph and present the data. All cell blocks are made by students as part of their independent research experience. #STEM #Arakansas @OBUNatSci youtu.be/OHyF82RwPWM?si…

A new CBEC cell Block on Cell Viability. A Spanish version will be coming soon. Cell Viability and Proliferation Assay with PrestoBlue youtu.be/Qte4n3d3bSs?si…

At an summer undergraduate research meeting and bumped into two of my previous (now PhDs) students at the meeting supporting their own students. I took them to the same meeting 10 years ago. Amazing!

I remember the day the rice genome was sequenced. No more chasing full lenght sequences from my subtraction libray.

@epadilla_jade @CellBioEd @CienciaPR @interpuertorico 🎉We couldn't have done it without you and your students!

Almost half of the users were undergraduate students and PUI faculty. Thank you for partnering with the CBEC! #STEM @CURinAction @CURENet1 @arepscor @OBUNatSci @NHEPSCoR #Arkansas

At the end of our first NSF grant, we created 76 "Cell Block" videos. All made by undergraduates as part of their independent research or #CURE. The CBEC YouTube channel has over 1,000 subscribers and over 77K views. @cellbiologyeducationconsortium?si=aqfsGQBwkeNk7c03" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@cellbiologyed…

English version of the newest @cbioportal in the classroom Cell Block by Dr. Padilla and her students @InterAguadilla. Our Spanish/English playlist is a full series on developing a CURE analyzing genomic data. @CURENet1 #STEM youtu.be/Pt543XYqxHs?si…

Did I mention they made Spanish and English versions of their Cell Blocks? How Cool? This helps us reach a wider audience and help more students and faculty.

More data/analysis and genomic Cell Blocks from @epadilla_jade and her students. This can be used to create an online CURE or used to support a wet-lab project. Cómo visualizar e interpretar "heatmaps" de datos clínicos en cBioPortal... youtu.be/qJGLKkfWoLE?si… via @YouTube

My students from Inter American University of Puerto Rico-Aguadilla were the winning team across all the U.S., and in the process acquired knowledge and skills across the disciplines of economics, diplomacy, scientific analysis, marketing, and trade policy.

Lately I can barely keep up, but this was a good win for our students + an opportunity for @interpuertorico to be at the intl. trade & policy "table" & at the excellence in higher education "map". Thanks @HACU for organizing the @USDA @USDAFAS Agricultural Export Market Challenge

Aurora borealis in Arkansas! My backyard. #Arkansas

Come learn about assessing student learning in CUREs at our workshop @UrsinusCollege on June 10. Travel awards available. More information at Basilbiochem.org registration link posting soon. @ASBMB @CURENet1
