Nafisa Nuzhat

Double announcement I'm excited to share🩷 So proud to share a new paper led by my incredible graduate student @dagarwal99 . We highlight the real experiences of mothers in academia and the structural & cultural changes needed to retain them. febs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/18…

Eid Mubarak to the hospitalized, the unjustly imprisoned, the displaced, the refugees, the homeless, the grieving, the workers who had to spend it away from their families, and anyone who woke up to no one wishing them a blessed Eid. May Allah lift all of your burdens.

@LyssiotisLab Thank you! Nafisa.Nuzhat@UTsouthwestern.edu

@nnuzhat Shoot your email 👍🏼

I have been instructed on hacks to making the formatting more palatable! Too much to type here, DM and I’ll send the slide deck from Michigan Medicine IT 💪🏼

@WertLaboratory I am having so much fun and I am excited for the adventure!

It’s National Postdoc Appreciation Week #NPAW2025 and I’m excited to say we have a new postdoc in the Wert lab, Dr. Nafisa Nuzhat! @nnuzhat Excited to have her join the team and to share her work here in the future

@KodaniLab @jdpereira Agreed. Joao is just cancelled in my world view 😄 I happen to agree with Andy regarding deep dish pizza tho, so I reckon I am on the chopping block too.

@nnuzhat @jdpereira @nnuzhat 's opinions do not reflect those of the labs. @jdpereira add this: deep dish pizza is breaded lasagna

I don’t “get” Mac and Cheese. Tastes like overcooked pasta and plastic cheese.

@jdpereira Omg I’ll drive down to Birmingham for a tutorial. I have been obsessed with these since my visit to Portugal last year

Hey I wonder if they have Pastéis de Nata around here - oh cool, this website lets you or… $19 for two??? I picked the wrong profession. You don’t understand I know how to make these: I can make batches of 24. There’s gold to be made!!

Thrilled to finally complete the Human Uterus Atlas! A huge shoutout to all the trainees for their exceptional work and collaborators @cziscience, @JunLi35170826 @AriellaShikanov, and Erica Marsh. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

This year, a traditionally joyous Ramadan feels different amid so much suffering in Gaza. We mourn with those who have lost loved ones. Michigan is stronger because of the Muslim community, and we will continue to wrap our arms around you and wish you a blessed Ramadan.

FINAL: The @Lions are headed to the NFC Championship! #NFLPlayoffs

It's been a long time comin' #AllGrit

IT’S GREAT TO BE A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE! #GoBlue

You know…someone tweeted about anxious people being oddly calm in serious situations due to constantly imagining every possible scenario and I haven’t stopped thinking about since

When it comes to football, there's no rivalry quite as legendary as Michigan vs Ohio State. Tomorrow, It's Wolverines vs. Buckeyes, and we all know who the real champs are (hint: the Wolverines with over 1,000 college football wins and hails from the best state in the Midwest!)
