First, first author data based submission of 2023 submitted that was born & raised in my lab

I feel like this is a huge win given all the struggles we’ve had building the lab & dealing with COVID disruptions

Anyone else read books in other languages to help them learn more?

My hubby does & he thinks I’m ready to try reading a real book in Spanish.

It might take me a year, but going to try. Any recommendations for good books written in Spanish that don’t have crazy made up words (e.g., not looking for a Harry Potter type thing) that might be a good read for a novice Spanish speaker? #spanish #learningspanish #books #spanishbooks #LangaugeLearning

Hi there! Sending a friendly reminder to schedule your cancer screenings. In the past couple weeks I have 3 people I know personally newly diagnosed with breast cancer, one who is only 43 with zero family history.

Remember that catching things early usually leads to a much better prognosis. Stay health friends!
