Was great to have you here and reminding us that osteocytes truly are amazing!!!
Thanks to @KershTBL and UIUCโs mechanical engineering department for hosting me yesterday! I really enjoyed meeting faculty and students. Learned a lot about the exciting research and collaborations on campus!

Woohoo!! Way to go @GriffinSipes!
I am incredibly grateful to receive this generous award from the De Luca Foundation. A huge thank you to @KershTBL and Ian Rice for your mentorship and continual help with this project, along with all the support I've received from my colleagues in the Tissue Biomechanics Lab.

I was taken by how many presenters at @ISBiomechanics 2023, a large meeting of ~1000 people, acknowledged their partners and/or family back home. Academia is not a 9-5 job. Yet all these presenters were women! Gents, I think we have some work to doโฆ #academia #WorkLifeBalance

Tomorrow's (Thur, July 19, 3pm CST) the big day for @sgmoshage - she will be presenting her PhD defense on the effect of exercise when young in a lovely dual-benefit equine model. Excellent work on multi-scale mechanics. DM for a zoom link.
