Mikaela Follmer is giving a pitch for funding for Clear Direction Mentoring to promote diversity in science.

As an alumni, they let me bring three guests into Widener library. Happy surprise.

It was so fun to show my students and former students my old stomping grounds. This is where the graduation was

ASCB presentations went well! Mikaela rocked her first oral presentation at an international conference. We loved learning from and meeting with colleagues and friends. I’m proud of these current and former students.

#Cleftpalate is a failure of the roof of the #mouth to close and is one of the most frequent #birthdefects affecting 1 in every 1000-2000 babies. A new study reveals the cellular heterogeneity and molecular underpinnings of #palate development. https://t.co/y0dqcTg0Fu

@SeismicPirate @BatesLab @CUAnschutz @CSD_CUAMC @bsp_cu @CUDevBio In an ideal world, we would recommend avoiding cigarettes and vapes just like how we say not to drink alcohol during pregnancy. Ultimately, that conversation should occur between the mother and their doctor. Our research will hopefully help clinicians determine best practices

In collaboration with Dr. Eszter Vladar and her team, we showed that maternal nicotine vaping during pregnancy disrupts fetal lung and skeletal development. @yozekin @CUAnschutz @CSD_CUAMC @bsp_cu @CUDevBio

Congratulations to @yozekin for his perseverance in completing this important research showing that vaping nicotine during pregnancy disrupts craniofacial development through inhibition of kcnj2
