@annabelcrabb I found your analysis piece today - posted on the 17th and I was just in so much awe at how well written and considered it was. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. Thank you for delivering such articulate excellence into my life!

Resonating strongly with this opening slide from Prof Richard Turner (general surgeon, Hobart) talking about the need to redefine resilience as the ability to speak up or change our environments, *not* the ability to absorb endless amounts of unacceptable behaviour. #RANZCOG23

Detecting cell boundaries seemed straightforward, until I applied a square root transformation. You'd be amazed at all the stuff lurking in the depths of your histograms.

Plot twist in the #BlueSoup saga: SOME OF THE STREAKED MICROBES FORM IRRIDESCENT COLONIES!!! Structural color is one of my favorite things. Many baciliform microbes that lay perfectly flat (media poured slowly and level) can form patterns that reflect like an oilslick on water.

Postdoc is conceptually different from a #PhD position. Below are some key points to keep in mind before starting postdoc. 1️⃣ The harsh reality of being a postdoc: 1. Postdoc is a contractual (not educational) position. Your postdoc duties are defined by your contract & agreement with your advisor. 2. Usually, a contract is given for 1 year and renewed annually. It does NOT offer the same job security that PhD students enjoy. Be prepared to start searching for a new position in 1st year and leave anytime. 3. Postdoc is inherently a position for academia (with a few exceptions like in bio). Often, companies will assume that you’ve chosen an academic track, not industry. They’d rather hire a fresh PhD graduate from the same field than a postdoc. So, your job search outside academia may become challenging, especially if you do fundamental research. 4. If you want to be a faculty, your postdoc may require a lot more efforts than you originally expected, making it the most intense time of your life. Be prepared. _________ 2️⃣ If you take postdoc because you want to be more competitive for senior academic positions, keep in mind that: 0. Choosing the right lab & advisor is statistically MORE important than simply working hard and publishing papers during postdoc (esp. in the U.S.). However, working with an advisor who can write an excellent recommendation letter does NOT mean that you will also get prepared for a faculty life and become a great scientist. Your advisor should be a good mentor for this. 1. As the competition for faculty positions can easily reach over 1/300 and you have ~1 year before applying for positions, postdoc time often turns into a “race”. The worst part is that hard work does NOT necessarily lead to success. 2. Postdoc is NOT a must for being a faculty. Some students secure professor positions at the end of their PhDs (esp. at the top universities in the U.S.). 3. Postdoc lasts 1-3 years. If you’re a first-year postdoc and apply for faculty positions, committees will be OK with you showing your PhD work during interview. But starting from your 2nd year, they expect you to show successful postdoc results. 4. Some committees expect that a 3-year postdoc should complete as much work as a 5-year PhD student. It’s like a fast-track PhD. 5. Often (esp. in STEM), the expected number of “postdoc papers” is on average 1 paper per 1 year, unless the work is unusually complex. NOT 10 papers/year. 6. Publishing a lot of papers is normally viewed negatively. Coauthoring tens of papers will send a RED flag to the committee. For decent universities, it's (almost always) quality over quantity. 7. Doing a second postdoc is rarely helpful in landing a faculty position. 8. Ideally, postdoc should be in a different field than your PhD. Switching fields is viewed positively and can be helpful in landing a faculty position. But it is much more challenging because your time is very limited but you must do outstanding research. Also, I know many people who didn’t change fields but became faculties nonetheless. Good luck! #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

Before he was a paramedic, Steven Tougher was our anaesthetic nurse. Kind, gentle, optimistic, warm. Our patients loved his cheeky grin. Our Wollongong community is numb, shocked, devastated. I can't believe it. Thinking of his family at this horrible time. Rest easy mate. xo
