@whereisdaz Hopefully coming back to you in a much bigger way ❤

Almost every week I try to find the owners of lost stuff at the beach. Keys, phones, kids… Today, I put my sunglasses down for 5 min to have a shower, and… gone. Where’s my karma?

@BetterAllies This is awful. Any time I hear someone referred to as a "guru" (in reference to a subject matter expert) I cringe 🤢

I don't casually use phrases appropriated from Indigenous spiritual traditions, like "lowest person on the totem pole." Unlike a quote in a research report of on "Race in the workplace" from McKinsey. mckinsey.com/featured-insig…

lol who did this

@Dr_E_Mc @lgamon I'm all PFAS these days, so avoid low-bind anything! Maybe #ozchem can help?

#teammassspec Anyone out there doing low-sample proteomics (e.g. approaching single-cell, 20-100 cells, ng/pg) and done testing or can recommend low-bind tips? Let's just say I can't do a completely one-pot sample prep but also want to minimise sample loss as much as possible.

There is no difference in the ability of men, women & non-binary ppl to design, perform & lead exceptional research. There is a BIG difference in how they are supported. Recruitment of women & non-binary ppl into many STEMM fields has not been an issue for decades. Retention is!

@profechem @egonwillighagen @ESchymanski @bigcat_UM @wikidata I was looking for this info just this week! 🙏

Despite being an extrovert I don’t love networking events. But I’m so pleased I braved the rain to celebrate current #SuperstarsofSTEM at @googledownunder this afternoon. Great to meet @VanessaPirotta @rockatscientist @mishaschubert & so many other wonderful #womeninstem 💪🏽🐋🧠🔬

@AmyRemeikis It me

Thank you @drapgunn for the most 🌟amazing🌟 tube rack. I can't wait to test it out!!

@Ha_Tanya As it should be 😌

I have ended the weekend with more plants than when it started. 🪴🌱🪴

@ESchymanski Amazing!! Thank you for your work in this space 🙌

And here they are, live already! Almost hit 1.8 million ...

@Antony_Clements @corey_tutt Bush Beast! Thank you! It's been annoying me I couldn't remember. So many fond memories of Wonderland 😌

@DrHeffo @corey_tutt Iirc there was 2 wood rattlers, the bush beast and its smaller cousin the beastie.

@Antony_Clements @corey_tutt What was that wooden, spine-rattling roller-coaster called? The Beastie?

@DrHeffo @corey_tutt It was pretty much next door to me, suburb wise. My home train station was the last stop before you had to bus it. People coming through during summer especially during school holidays, as noisy and annoying as they were, was a fairly decent boost to the local economy.

@Antony_Clements @corey_tutt I miss Wonderland!!

@corey_tutt If only it still existed.

@drapgunn *can't

@drapgunn Ack, I can message you! 🥺

Made some transparent racks for our lab. Handy to be able to see the solvent levels and keep a few different tube types in the one rack! #lab #acrylic
