I attended this workshop in Houston last year and highly recommend it!
This research mentoring workshop for faculty will focus on fostering effective communication, aligning expectations, and promoting self-efficacy and professional development with our research trainees. Limited seats are available so early registration is encouraged:

After phenomenal talks at the #KSFungalPath24 this morning, I made it up to @MtNorquay. It’s been a couple years since I last went skiing but it comes back quick.

Congrats to Yue for all her hard work. This was a fun project to work on and I’m happy to see it in print!
Great work led by Yue Zhang (now Westlake University) and Gerard Wong (UCLA) out in @PNASNews on viral mimicry of proinflammatory host peptides—our lab (@Alison_Coady now UTMB and Raymond Zurich now UCDavis) contributed. Link to article in 1st comment. https://t.co/Lx1TrDAqSV

Had a great time @cshlmeetings Microbial Pathogenesis and Host Response last week. It was great to catch up with awesome friends and science.
It was great seeing a bunch of the former @victornizet postdocs again. I don't think we've all been in one place since pre-covid! @jkimmey @Alison_Coady @Katy_Patras
