The #BioMLab team meeting ended early. So am I doing a bit of work until my next scheduled task? Nope. I’m sitting outside for the remainder of the time, looking at a maple tree that has a bird in it, sharing it with you. No one should punish you for working efficiently. Don’t do more work. Your time and health are valuable. #HigherEd #PhDLife

Okay, I'm glowing with pride and I can't contain myself. Just found out that I'm maintaining my 1:1 ratio of PhD grads to prof jobs, within one year of graduation. Another job offer for the #BioMLab! What do you do to support your (or others') PhD and Masters students to take their next steps? #HigherEd #AcademicChatter #MentorshipMatters

It's Reference Letter Updating Week in the #BioMLab. We're looking at the most recent letters, and sharing our updates. It's a time to reflect on our achievements and celebrate the wins. It's also a time to accept that we are awesome on 'paper' and in the eyes of others. It helps. #AcademicChatter #HigherEd

Folks in the #BioMLab would LOVE to help out. We are a transdisciplinary team of early career researchers (undergrads and grads) who really enjoy working together in clean and healthy spaces.

Looks like fun! Very much looking forward to the book. Students this year in the #BioMLab identified β€œwriting” as one of two skills they would like to dive into learning more about during our group meetings. I’m really excited to learn more.

Long list, but one of the most impactful: A short term emergency loan program in the #BioMLab. Only one question asked: when do you think you can repay it? Up to $1000. It has been used and never abused. More here: shoshanahjacobs.ca/policiesj…

Choosing your #PhDLife pathway is sometimes not a choice. Do you get a Master's first? Go straight to PhD? Roll up once you've started? @A_Quirky_Human, former MSc student in the #BioMLab has all the answers. They looked at inputs and outcomes of a grad #HigherEd and WOW we learned some stuff!! @uogcoesp @IntUGrativeBiol @UofGCBS Check out the transdisciplinary team! @AndriaBitton and David Walters in @OntVetCollege and @CSAHS_UoG

Next up at the Teaching and Learning Conference is... me, from the #BioMLab We did a study on HOW & WHY students reach out to instructors outside of class. What are the #HigherEd barriers? The idea came when I was setting my office hours for a course @UofGCBS @IntUGrativeBiol

Hi there #HigherEd folks. This is @SimoneLBoivin. She is doing research in the #BioMLab in student attitudes towards learning transferable skills. She just presented a peak into her data and kicked some serious science-ass! Give her a follow if you want to stay connected :)
Hello! I’m Simone and I’m studying students’ perspectives on the development of #TransferableSkills in #HigherEd. Working on closing the #SkillsGap! Apart from being a #SoTL researcher, I am also an amateur birder, aspiring long-distance runner, and outdoor enthusiast πŸ•

Day 2 of the Teaching and Learning Innovations conference and @SimoneLBoivin from the #BioMLab is sharing her research about student motivations and attitudes about learning transferable skills. Why? Because how they feel about learning them should inform how we teach them! oooo, and check out this transdisciplinary research team! #HigherEd #TransferableSkills @UofGCBS @uogcoesp @UofGCEPS
