Twitter friends, Tanya is an awesome PhD student in my department. Give her a follow!
I think it’s time to revive my twitter account again. Hi all, I’m a PhD student in Molecular and Integrative Physiology and I work on understanding how the brain circuits change in pregnancy and lactation.

Feeling this post right now.
What I don't get about academia is the chronic lack of celebration. It is hard to get & maintain grant funding, hard to get papers accepted without Faustian bargains, hard to be a great mentor, & hard to maximize trainee success. All of it is hard. We should celebrate everything.
