📢📢 #Drpsophila community! #FlyCROSS surveys are open for #mentors. The current chairs @shyama13.bsky.social and @jocmcdonald.bsky.social alongside the committee members have put in a lot of effort to begin the third cycle of this mentoring program. You may have already received an invite from GSA.
I have just begun watching this show - it's soooo good ! Seeing visuals of #Mumbai from the 1980s and 1990s 😍 And all the amazing old Hindi songs in the background 🤌🏽🤌🏽 #primevideo #titanstory

Very grateful to the committee which joined us at the very beginning and had faith in a new idea. @armstrongflylab.bsky.social @jocmcdonald.bsky.social @shyama13.bsky.social , Jonathan Andrews and Frank Macabenta 🥳 They all did a lot of work behind the scenes to ensure smooth matches 🤩
#Drosophila community update: FlyCROSS is undergoing a new exciting transition. Me and Laurel Raftery are stepping down as co-chairs. We are beyond thrilled to announce that @shyama13.bsky.social and @jocmcdonald.bsky.social will be the new co-chairs of the FlyCROSS mentoring program! (1/N) 🥹🎊

Me spending my Sunday afternoon 🤷🏽♀️ 5 years of grad school and still can't be good at this 😳 #matchingsocks
Look at the amazing turnout for the #eggdrop contest at @iubiology.bsky.social ! And all the creative ways of dropping eggs and at the winning team 🥹🥚🐣 #phdlife #gradlife #sciencing #friyay @ecoevodevo-lab.bsky.social @tennessenlab.bsky.social
Stuff we are excited about at @iubiology.bsky.social is the end of semester celebrations and #eggdrop contest ! Look at the cool team names we all came up with. I am so looking forward to seeing the flying parachutes and boxes with eggs 😅🥚🐣🪂👩🏽🔬 #phdlife #community #spring
Whoever drew it - they did a good job. We did something very similar when we couldn't find Jason for a while (he disappeared on us) 🤣
Papers like these should be a part of teaching curriculum in all #undergrad and #gradschool courses ! #basicscience #scicomm #genetics #cellbio
The one thing I am super excited about for tomorrow - is to see Dr Ruth Lehmann 🤩 Having read many of her classic landmark papersbin developmental biology, I am so thrilled to be meeting her - someone whom I look up to 😍 🎉👩🏽🔬 #womeninstem 💪🏽
My first mentee presented her first poster today - yayy ! Minseo Kim is a phenomenal masters student in our lab & has been working with me for her thesis. She'll soon be applying for MD-PhD programs & will definitely be someone to watch ! #phdlife @iubiology.bsky.social @tennessenlab.bsky.social
Every time me and maa (mom) have a fight this is what I sing for her - Asha ji will always be remembered as an absolute legend 😟 youtu.be/1LPtNHJckpw?...
