I’m so very excited that the Cullati lab will be opening September 2023 @WWUChem! I’m like the dog that caught the car - I get to teach undergrad biochem, mentor students, and keep learning about kinase signaling in beautiful Bellingham WA ❤️🤩🎉

Do you have an @NIH grant app waiting to be reviewed in Oct? A long govt shutdown could cancel study sections and require you to resubmit in Jan. with review in June. Call your Representative and tell them what a shutdown would mean to your lab. ow.ly/IaxT50PP9pw

Many people take "non-traditional" career paths in academia. @Brixius_Simone, @mm5200, @MoeNeuro and I did! We wrote for @PLOSBiology about how non-linear careers are increasingly common, but funding agencies and search committees penalize these paths.

It's that time of year!!
Time to help @SkypeScientist by telling every teacher, librarian, troop leader, etc you know...
Skype a Scientist's Fall 2023 enrollment is OPEN!
Sign up here bit.ly/EnrollFall2023
We rely on word of mouth to grow, so this action is critical for us!
ALT An explainer for skype a scientist that says "Skype a Scientist chat with scientists FOR FREE" followed by "How it works: Step 1: Sign up on SkypeAScientist.com Step 2: Pick types of science your group would like to talk about (30 categories!) Step 3: Connect with your scientist via email and pick a time to chat. Step 4: Talk to your scientist!" and a little logo of ours and these words "Skype a Scientist is a Philly- based science communication 501(c)3 non-profit "
