well I wasn't going to come back to Twitter, but then I remembered @TheTweetofGod and I might be sunk again. Can.Not.Stop.Laughing at this.

I'm excited to be sharing our Vibrio vulnificus research at the National Shellfish Association Annual Meeting today with so many accomplished scientists. #Shellfish21, #LaunenLab, #KSCBiology

Just finished training to run my Minion! Dna sequencing literally in the palm of my hand coming soon to a LaunenLab near you. ❤️❤️#lovemyminion ⁦@nanopore⁩

Does anyone out there know of examples of where #genome- misassembly lead to scientific error? If so please share.

A really fantastic example of how metagenomics can guide public health practice. Definitely introducing my students to minION sequencing with this paper! Metagenomic sequencing at the epicenter of the Nigeria 2018 Lassa fever outbreak | Science science.sciencemag.org/content/363/64…

@bekss96 @karencang HI Bekah, interesting to see this, @KiraPearson12 and I have been kicking this idea around for quite awhile! Maybe it's time.

@karencang @LorenLaunen Honestly, maybe I'm just a nerd but a "book" club where we read and then discuss a primary lit paper would be fantastic. #KSCBio

A great idea! @LorenLaunen #KSCBio

@karencang @TheTattooedProf @thatpsychprof @actualham @suwhitte I also use the OpenStax Microbiology textbook for the last couple of years and think it'is quite good.

@TheTattooedProf @thatpsychprof @actualham Our Biology dept has been using openstax bio for 3 years for our intro courses. It is an excellent text. As good as or better as any I’ve ever used. @suwhitte @LorenLaunen maybe want to chime in? Also happy to answer specific questions.

@gobman Once I went to school with my sweater on inside (ok more than once but..). To a meeting with my lab group. In a moment where I left the room apparently they all discussed who was going to tell me it was inside out, and somehow came up with a plan for letting me know - thankfully!

@willt_kscbio @haley_zanga @karencang And this is why you are such a fabulous student. Creative, capable, with initiative and exceptional team skills. A life long learner who is a joy to work with.

@haley_zanga @karencang 2/2 Then I started caring solely on learning the material and expanding it to the next level or next step and I felt like I got way more from it than before. I just wish I realized it earlier
