BREAKING: Duke attys have indicated they intend to challenge the legal standing of grad workers as employees, aiming to reverse the NLRB’s 2016 Columbia decision. @DukeU: stop these reprehensible union-busting tactics, recognize our majority, and meet us at the bargaining table.

@ZoieDiana Hexagon-shaped glitter pieces! It's the most common nail glitter shape I've seen. They can get pretty tiny, like 0.008 inches. Typically pretty solvent-resistant too (because nail polish)

1000% agree with this advice for current PhD students. My "extracurriculars" were hugely fulfilling - and kept me grounded and motivated when the research side of my PhD was tough. Loved my summer internship with @DukeELPC and volunteering with @SOToxicology

@DrFishPhys Microsoft PowerPoint!! The only element I didn't make in PowerPoint was the U.S. map - and I just made that image myself in Adobe because I hated all the other available U.S. map icons

What an awesome idea with excellent visuals! Seems like both a fun and useful exercise for grad students or anyone working on large/multifaceted projects
