So excited for #OMIBS25! Applications are open until April 2!! Hope to have you join us at the MBL this summer!! www.mbl.edu/education/ad...
So humbled and grateful for this opportunity, but want to emphasize that none of this would be possible without @marianadeniz.bsky.social who not only had the idea and did the work for the nomination, but saw in me something that I did not. It has been an honor to work with and learn from her. (1/2)
Now that I can say it publicly - huge congratulations to @michelleitano.bsky.social , winner of this year's @bioimagingna.bsky.social Michael W Davidson award for "Community contributions, in any of the areas of Engagement, Education, Mentorship, and Standardization". So well deserved! #GBIxBINA2025

Today, ~40 practicing scientists joined a Zoom lab meeting to hear my Mechanochemical Cell Bio undergrads give research progress talks on their quantitative microscopy studies in MYO10 stable knockdown cell lines. I’ve got graduating seniors looking for science jobs. These folks are ready.
