Excited to share my first first-author paper of grad school with @JGreenGroup out in @ActaBio today! Huge thank you to labmate @StephYTzeng, collaborators @ashleylfarris @GraysonLab and incredible undergrad @Dennis_H_Gong authors.elsevier.com/c/1bWlv_dd~9xC…

@flystl can we have an update on what is going on in terminal 2? It’s been over an hour stuck here and we are sure what the situation is

@flystl can we get some sort of communication from the airport about what’s going on in terminal 2? We’ve been stuck here for almost an hour now and not sure what’s going on

@flystl Could we get someone in Terminal 2 to organize people? It’s a mess

No words.

@MiyaNorfleet WashU Alum who took financial aid here! This sounds INCREDIBLE—I think the prevailing question is how is this financially possible for WashU/are there any loopholes etc?

I’m working on a segment about Wash U’s new “no-loan” policy and I’d love to hear y’all thoughts and questions!

"No one should have to borrow money to obtain an undergraduate degree." Starting fall 2024, we're taking a bold step to make higher education accessible with a "no-loan" financial aid policy, ensuring a debt-free WashU education for admitted students. bit.ly/3PsHfVQ

Congrats (and Happy Birthday!) to @JHUBME ’s newest minted PhD: Dr. Savannah Est-Witte! Fantastic thesis and fantastic scientist from @HopkinsMedicine @HopkinsEngineer ! @WitteEst @SiebelScholars @ARCSMetroWash @NSF @INBT_JHU

@johnhickey22 @duke @dukebme Ahhh CONGRATS John!! 😊

Sharing great news – Excited to announce I will join @Duke as an assistant professor in @DukeBME starting January 2024! My lab will leverage computational, biomaterial, and spatial-omics tools to probe/control tissue structure in situ, focusing on advancing cell therapies (1/8).

Another first author paper! Super proud of this one published in @Biomaterials_ with my amazing mentor Dr. Stephany Tzeng. Check out how we reprogram the tumor microenvironment using mRNA nanoparticles co-formulated in a thermoresponsive gel! 🧬🔬🧫 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

During negotiations with @TRUhopkins yesterday, administrators asked "if it was really true that workers were asked to take on additional unpaid work over the course of their degree." Yes, and its how some departments are able to function at all. 🧵(1/5)

@njoybetz I have had this situation a few times and have said pretty much the same thing. I’ve also added too depending on the person that it was “routine” or nothing to worry about so they don’t do the inevitable “are you ok??” And then I have to divulge. Good luck!

We are hiring postdocs to work on the development of biomaterial-based treatments for autoimmunity and infectious diseases. Applicants should have a background in small molecule or polymer synthesis, good interpersonal skills, and a passion for science. @jhubme @jhumi

@DavidRWilson @Sci_Squirrel Congratulations!!!🎉

@DrErikaMoore @UMDBIOE Congratulations!!

Big news! The Moore Lab is moving to @UMDBIOE and seeking postdocs & lab tech to advance our mission of leveraging the immune system for health equity. Apply now at themoorelab.com/people/open-po… #research #immunology #healthinequity

@ZJAyres Yes! I rarely see this talked about wrt students with health issues/disabilities that make it difficult to share a room as well

@eewicks Aww Lizzy yay!! Congratulations I am so happy for you 🥰

Congratulations to all my fellow successful #Match2023 applicants! As I reflect upon today, thanks be to God, my family, and everyone who supported me through this journey. WOW -- I’m going to be a neurosurgeon!!

@work_on_phone @PhDVoice @PostdocVoice Second this!

@PhDVoice @PostdocVoice Before you talk to them, figure out what you want. At the end of it, do you want time off? Help prioritizing? Help finding a counselor or therapist or resources? Reassurance that you are cut out? Focus the conversation on what you need/want

Anonymous question “I’ve just started as a PhD student, and I’m feeling really overwhelmed atm. I want to tell my supervisors that I’m having problems with my mental health, but I’m worried that they will think I’m not cut out for PhD studies. Any...👇 #PhDVoice @PostdocVoice

@sarahyneshat Ahhh glad to see students enjoying it! ❤️❤️❤️

Huge thanks to @WitteEst and Alexis Peña who designed the course!

I taught a fun intersession course focused on food + nutrition engineering and one of my students wrote an article about her experience! Personally, my favorite part was hosting co-founder & CEO Insa Mohr from Baltimore-based @moojimeats! 🥩🌱🔧 apply.jhu.edu/hopkins-inside…
