  1. Today was my last day as a program officer at the US National Science Foundation (#NSF) in the STEM Education Directorate, Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE). I'll be returning to my home institution, the University of Colorado Denver in the CU Denver School of Education & Human Development

    It's been an interesting year to say the least. I've had the privilege to work with many great PIs who are doing excellent work advancing STEM education in our country. And I've been able to work with a fantastic group of dedicated and kind colleagues in DUE, many of whom I consider friends. We've funded some very exciting work that has gone through rigorous scientific review, and that is a satisfying feeling.

    I hope to be able to share a lot of what I've learned with my colleagues at home and with the broader field. Some of us who are rotating out right now are thinking of ways we can support the PI community in advancing high-quality STEM education and we will have things to share soon.

    Goodbye for now, DC. Hello Denver!

  2. #CUDenver campus closed tomorrow due to the incoming storm. Denver is forecast for 10-18", Boulder 16-24", 1-3' in the Foothills. It's gonna be a wet, heavy one, folks!

  3. This kid ran up to me and requested a photo when he saw me with a DSLR. It was cute, but also sad that I couldn’t easily share the photo with them—they didn’t speak English and just kept asking, “photo?” 😭

    If anyone happens to know them, here you go! 😁

  4. #Voted.

    And yes I voted for @andrewbrandt for #BVSD #SchoolBoard, and also my friend and colleague at #CUDenver Jorge Chavez!

    And heads up, Boulder County folks - in case you were not aware, there is an anti-vax person running for school board. And they are a biochemist! Do your research!
