Last week, I toured @unccharlotte's lab in Cameron Hall that processes COVID-19 tests administered through the Student Health Center. The team is prepared to process 200 tests per day, with the ability to scale up. I thank them for this commitment to our campus and community.

We don’t say an InDesign book, or an Illustrator poster, or an Avid movie. Can we please do away with the term PowerPoint presentation?

I ask this at every workshop - it usually ranges from 50-90% of info missed at sci talks. We need to communicate better to other scientists! x.com/fromthelabbench/status…
