First copies of my book are here!! As a new faculty member, I realized that in addition to my research job, I also had a leadership job…and I wasn’t prepared for that. This book is the guide I wish I’d had then, with the goal of helping others now.   jenheemstra.com/book

Science Twitter 🚨 I’m working on a talk about applying to PhD Programs during the next cycle. I was wondering, do you know of any potential changes due to cuts in federal funding? Is there anything that applicants should be doing differently for this cycle? Thank you! 🤍

I wanted to major in neuro undergrad, but my uni didn’t have it. I double majored in cell & molecular biology/psychology. I have been thankful MANY TIMES for molecular background. Today: PCR cleanup > digest > gel > extraction > T4 ligation/HiFi assembly > e. Coli transform

Our team is SO happy and excited to receive this grant which will allow us to take the next step towards the development of a novel treatment for endometriosis! @sur180
