  1. Weird #NewPI and #AcademicChatter thought: I think I've realised the thing I miss most after transitioning to a PI role: music. Almost all my work now focuses around reading/writing. I can't listen to music when I write. I never get to just sit at the bench and power through mindless tasks. 1/2

  3. The fact that I'm starting** to transition out of #NewPI status hit me today when I found a folder with a grant idea I really believe in, which I came up with 7 years ago, and which I wrote a serious grant pitch for 3 years ago, but then never submitted & haven't thought about since. 🙃 #AcademicSky

  4. Two days of connecting the Dutch Academic Community are coming up at #NWOCHAINS. Yesterday, we already had the New PI meeting and the PI meeting with a lot of great content. (1/8) #ECR #PI #Chemistry #ChemBio #Connections #NewPI

  6. Today, I start as an Ad Astra Fellow @ucddublin.bsky.social, which means that today's my first day as a professor. I don't know how to feel. This was my dream. It's what I worked for, and it finally happened! But I never thought it'd happen like this. (1/4) #AcademicSky #NewPI #CompChem 🧪 ⚗️

  7. Still ~6.5 months until I start as an Assistant Prof., but I've just finished version 0.1 of "The CoReACTER Manual", the starting point for organizing the group I'm founding! I don't even know how many hours I put into this, but I'm relieved to be done (for now). (1/3) #AcademicSky #NewPI ⚗️ #ChemE

  8. Seems like we are having a lucky streak:
    - Franzi is about to submit her PhD thesis 💪🏻
    - Felix received excellent feedback on his first paper 💪🏻
    - Simon is producing tons of exciting new simulation results 💪🏻
    - Dimitris finally started his PhD adventure here in Hohenheim 💪🏻
    - Rémi accepted our job offer and is planning to join the #ecoevo #modelling team in March 💪🏻
    - ...and even my little coworker is in an excellent mood! 🥰

    I'm a *very* proud #newPI today. 🎉

  10. Oof. I feel so stressed. So many projects were supposed to be done before the winter break (haha) but they ALL decided to develop a life of their own and haunt me during vacation.
    Argh. Sigh.

    (But: the biggest goal for this year was to simply stay in the game and keep my group running, together with my little coworker, and we totally nailed that!)

  12. I remember feeling terribly nervous before job interviews. Let’s be honest, it’s an awful feeling. But I never realised the other side might be equally nervous. Choosing the *right* person for a given job is so much more difficult than I thought. And that person also has to match with the rest of my team, otherwise it won’t work. Exciting times ahead!

  13. For a new PI, starting their lab, is it better to hire a postdoc or a PhD student (as your first lab member)?
    [Imagine funding them is not a problem]

  17. 🚨Lipid Time🚨 I am thrilled to announce that I’m starting my journey as an independent group leader at @UniHeidelberg Biochemistry Center.
    I will combine experimental research and computer simulations. Stay tuned for upcoming open positions! #NewPI

  18. First manuscript with my new research group submitted :laptop_parrot: It's a short-paper for a conference, but still!

  19. Reading @mekkaokereke 's terrific thread on onboarding (hachyderm.io/@mekkaokereke/112), and wondering what other #newPI / #PI / #researchers in #academia do.

    I've a short document with all the main information on department/group life, which I share on day 1, but I don't think it's sufficient.

    Does anyone have any resources/examples/ideas to share?

  21. Starting a faculty position is an exceptionally stressful time. And while much revolves around getting your research started, it is important to take teaching seriously.

    Here are 5 general tips. 🧪

  22. According to YouTube, people have watched my videos on 'Life in Academia' now for over 25 thousand hours. 🤯

    I think that's incredible....thanks for watching, and keep the suggestions coming!

  23. Some #professionalNews. Last week I've started a #newJob as #assistantProfessor (tenure track) in #biostatistics at my Alma Mater, the University of #Turin (#UniTo), Department of Clinical and Biological Sciences.

    It's been tremendous: meeting new people, joining terrific research projects, and fitting in some old ones.

    Looking forward to a lot of years of new and exiting #openScience 🤟

  25. Note for future reference and work life balance: do not, I repeat, do not agree to submit two grant co-aplications in the same deadline.

  26. 6 years ago today, a little nervous & a little excited, I started a brand-new adventure at the @biozentrum at @unibasel!👩🏻‍🎓

    And today, feeling much the same, I'm starting a brand-new adventure as a PI & Group Leader at Swiss TPH! 👩🏻‍💻

  28. Alright I’m (reluctantly) back and trying out this app.

    Might as well start on a high note: the lab has been awarded our first big NSF. Our BRC-BIO grant will support our work using #astrangia to study how variation in multi-partner symbioses affects host immunity. This project also supports undergraduate research experiences for students at TXST and RWU (w/ awesome co-PI Koty Sharp). We’re pretty pumped!

  29. Great news: very proud of @NFerrandiz who will launch her own lab in Salamanca later this year and has just been awarded her first grant.

  30. Dear Future Self,

    Ok, you get to do project management meeting planning and recaps today. But tomorrow has to be devoted to paperwork. I know you have N other data analysis projects you need to do too but you can't have fun work until you finish your grunt work.

    Much Love,
    Overwhelmed #newPI

  32. #NewPI looking for advice on writting#StephenKatzR01. Anyone know a #ESI who has successfully obtained #funding through this mechanism #nci #momademic #nih ? #grantwritting thank you!

  33. Day 2 as a #NewPI: 13 years post undergraduate, I now get a private office 😅 Feels weird being by myself at work 😂

  34. In the latest edition of 'IMPloyable talent', we switch perspectives from job seekers to a #newPI who's #hiringnow. @fmorreale_ester from the @clausen_lab will start her lab soon at @thecrick, working on targeted protein degradation in bacteria. 🦠👇🏽

  35. This was fun! I gave my first #newPI #StateOfTheLab covering the 6P:

    𝗣eople 𝗣urchases 𝗣ayments (to us)
    𝗣urpose 𝗣rojects 𝗣apers

    No standing ovations, but lots of smiles when we got to the slide citing our future papers and press coverage😄
