Thanks for inviting me. I had a blast. #WCUB2023 was terrific thanks to amazingly dedicated organizers and energetic graduate student and post-doc attendees.

And that's a wrap on #WCUB2023! A big thank you from all of the organizers (pictured below), and we'll see you in 2025!

This panel on Non-Profit Careers with Huong Hyun-Regan, Ken Shatkes, Elizabeth Nyakatura, and Laura Andres-Martin that's being facilitated by Ivan Pinos is fire. Some key takeaways: #SciComm is important. Check out job boards and LinkedIn. Volunteer with kids. #WCUB2023

💪What an inspirational keynote from @sudipsparikh to end on for Day 1 of #WCUB2023! We live in the greatest time of science, where we can be optimists born of evidence. See you tomorrow for another day of great career panels and workshops

This was an amazing panel. I learned so much from all of you! A lot of great advice. Thank you for sharing your experience!

Attending the #WCUB2023 virtual conference and listening to a panel of some great science communicators while my brain imaging runs in the background 🔬

Really enjoying the #SciComm panel at #WCUB2023 with @FromTheLabBench, @simplebiologist, @matteofarinella, @luisatorresduq, and @Martinabonucci. The bottom line is that #SciComm is for those who are hungry to write, draw, and create in any way shape or form. #ECRchat #STEM

I am a Speaker @WCUBPHD together with my colleagues @DrCMckinney, @Ponderphd, and @FatimasBrain!
