Got to spend this morning teaching R to a bunch of excited students & faculty!

Feels nice to come back as an instructor for the same software carpentry workshops I attended as a first year PhD :’)

many thanks to @dwbapst.bsky.social & Heather Baldi for being awesome and organizing this event.

TBH I’ve been overwhelmed, and occasionally discouraged, by the world recently.

I was awarded best talk at a symposium last week. One of the judge’s comments was “presenter’s enthusiasm and passion for her research is contagious.” 🥲

‘Twas a much needed win. My love for science will not falter!

my research assistants will be acknowledged in my dissertation without a doubt 😤 they have provided so much guidance (ie snuggles).

I’m almost certain you can’t guess what species I’m currently looking at sequencing data for. ;-)
