@smbrander @500womensci @500WS_Corvallis @ORSTATEADVANCE Good advice for dads and grandpas too. When I first started it was so encouraging to hear male colleagues say that they couldn't attend a meeting because of childcare duties.

On the frequent occasion that I'm asked to attend a work event that occurs after 5, I now respond that childcare for my kids closes at 5:30 pm. If we all push back a bit, maybe things will truly start to shift. #worklifebalance @500womensci @500WS_Corvallis @ORSTATEADVANCE

@peiprairiegirl @loleen_berdahl @mcgillu So far so good! Although now that I've started it is hard to tear myself away for other "more pressing" things (like preparing for first lectures tomorrow!)

@loleen_berdahl Great initiative! I have teamed up with good friend and colleague @JA_Head @mcgillu and we start today! 👍🏻

Me: I desperately want a career in academia, but I look at what you do, and I just can’t do that. PhD advisor: Of course you can’t… What followed was so impactful and empowered me to start dismantling my biggest career barrier. Maybe it can help you too: …gsthatchangethewayithink.blogspot.com/2018/11/career…

Hey folks, As you head off to conferences, remember not to compare yourself to others, to avoid basking in academic gossip, to do something good for someone coming after you in the academy, and that this should always be about the work and not the shine. Love, MB

Still in awe of my time at the #SETACSacramento conference and starting the @Diversity_SETAC committee with latonya. As we grow as a society it’s important for our membership to reflect the world we serve! @SETAC_world @CSETAC @studentsofSETAC @UNCGResearch @UNCG_GradSchool

Whenever I find myself getting v concerned about the future of life on Earth, I’m comforted thinking of the humble tardigrade. Sure, humans may not be here long in the grand scheme of things, but water bears will certainly persevere for millions of years after we’re gone.
