@scigalleryatl @ScienceGallery @EmoryUniversity This week Summer Krinsky and I attended the VIP event for Science Gallery Atlanta exhibition “Hooked,” where our collaborative multimedia art piece “Notification (2022)” is displayed. #scicomm #womeninstem #girlswhocode #atlanta

💚🤍 I’m so sorry, MSU. A lot of people’s lives changing forever tonight 😔

@brontosamus Not drugs, weapons. But obv they were framed by Future Industries!

I was not expecting the cabbages from Avatar to be a secret drug trafficking operation

Two jellyfish from the ETERNAL series are representing #scicomm art at the University Of Detroit Mercy’s Science and Engineering Symposium! @udmces #ETERNAL #plastic #plasticpollution #scicommart

I have a good relationship with the falcons that live in the clock tower on campus. They viciously prey upon local birds and leave feathers and heads and wings behind; I pick up these treasures and put them on display in my office. It’s great 😊🐦

@brontosamus BOOOOOO

Why the fuck did they put a speed bump directly in front of my house when I HATE them and definitely did not ask for it

@brontosamus 😣

I ripped so much skin off my burn and I gotta keep putting gloves on and ripping them off and I hate it

*my* plastic jellyfish sculpture (dropped a word whoops)

Today a student told me that her boyfriend goes to Lyman Briggs College at MSU and was texting her photos of plastic jellyfish sculpture, ETERNAL: BLOOM like “is this your bio professor?” 🥰🥰🥰 @lymanbriggs @BioDetroit #scicomm #WomenInSTEM

@madbruschetta @brontosamus This is so accurate 🙃

bye Ann Arbor I’ll always remember you as where I went clinically insane

UPDATE: THE TADPOLE HAS ARMS NOW and it looks like he is starting to develop a real jaw too #frogs #WomenInSTEM

@6MileFlyGuy @detmercy Congratulations! ☺️

In two weeks I will officially be a full professor @detmercy! I am honored by this promotion, and wanted to recognize a small fraction of those that have helped/mentored/pushed/carried/collaborated with me along the way 1/ sites.udmercy.edu/campusconnecti…

@sbconant Congratulations ☺️

It wasn't easy and proving you deserve recognition for the work you do is stressful but I'm proud to say I'll start this year as a Full Professor at Detroit Mercy. Thank you to all who support me and know how hard we all work to be the best we can at this! sites.udmercy.edu/campusconnecti…

My band Ocean Above is playing a show this week! And it’s with two other amazing bands! Come on out 🎶 🥰 #thingstodo #detroit #livemusic

The Feeding of the Frogs at @UDMces 🥰🐸 #WomenInSTEM

Tried to feed the African Dwarf Frogs a block of frozen blood worms, thinking they’d come eat pieces as they thaw. Nope! The big female came over, stole the frozen block from my tongs, and shoved the whole thing in her mouth 😐 like girl are you ok? That was a lot of ice. 😅🐸

Wild to listen to someone explain their research… and see they were using the Zebrafish Brain Atlas I worked on with @Fish4Brains a few years ago! 🤯🧠🐟
