Inupiaq, scientist of host-microbe interactions, mom, runner, news junkie, not necessarily in that order. I speak for myself. She/her. Only reskeets posts with alt text. Unapologetically typo prone, doesn't use AI.

Imagine spending your life building these networks and funding mechanisms and just seeing all that wiped out in, what, 14 months?
I'll be thinking about that for a long time. Build sustainable programs folks. No idea how....
Met someone who spent their career building programs to support underrepresented scientists at all career stages. We asked what he wished he knew earlier. He said he wished he knew how to make these programs sustainable, so that his life work didn't crumble with a change in leadership.

Picture of Hammam outside the tent. The floor is sand, the tent looks patched and old.
Hammam's mother doing laundy in a bucket. All their belongings are spread on the ground. Displaced people in Gaza have almost nothing.
Picture of Abood sitting on a blanket with a wrapping around his leg. He looks to be in pain.
🚨
The crossings in Gaza are closed, goods are expensive, and we are starving.
My brother has a broken leg & needs surgery. Our lives are catastrophic; we are displaced. We implore you to donate & support us so we can buy food supplies & get my brother treatment.

East coast person attending a West Coast meeting: I've showered, practiced my talk, made a decision on a paper, attended a meeting about a fish experiment with collaborators at another institution, answered questions for a nomination for a thing, all before 7:30. I even had time to ponder life.

I thought I was having a rough day but then I read this post about someone debating whether to check on their mouse experiment while sirens were blaring and missiles were entering the airspace in Kuwait and you know what? This headache isn't that bad.
