If I could give aspiring scientists and trainees one piece of advice it would be this: Find a mentor who cares enough about you to do this ๐ #Mentorship #AcademicChatter #PhysicianScientist #CareerAdvice

Genuinely caring about students should be a non-negotiable qualification for a career in academia. Full stop. No amount of research achievement or creativity can substitute for caring about the professional development and well-being of those we teach and mentor.

Out of curiosity, if you joined the lab of a #NewPI as grad student, what were some reasons to do so instead of joining a more established lab?

After ~7 yr of work, it's finally out! We present a molecular phylogeny of butterflies sampling >90% of genera & >2000 spp. Butterflies emerged ~100 million yr ago in North America and first fed on legumes. Thanks to all 87 co-authors from 28 countries! https://t.co/fY5igGzuji

"Growth of your team members = Growth of yourself" ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
As a professor, pursue the careers of your PhD students and postdocs instead of pursuing your own. I know it may sound strange and even provocative. But in fact it is how itโs supposed to be. Unfortunately, a personal gain is the biggest motivation for many professors. More

Science is hard. Good research makes you feel stupid. You're inadequate for the task at hand. How else would it be? You're pushing the boundaries of knowledge. Get used to it. This process is immensely rewarding.

Iโm a black woman from rural KY. Iโm a survivor of childhood #abuse and #trauma. Iโve lived in 10 different houses by the age of 16. Iโve worked 2-3 jobs since 16 until med school. But, Iโm also a #firstgen college grad and a #firstgen med student. Trust, 2024 will run me my MD๐ฉ๐ฝโโ๏ธ

Kudos to Dr. Patapoutian for sharing his personal story! Sometimes, it takes a lot courage to own our heritage with pride. Let's embrace diversity and promote inclusion in all areas of life. #InclusionMatters #Science #AcademicTwitter
"I'm a bit ashamed to admit this, but I was trying to hide the fact that I came from Lebanon." 2021 medicine laureate Ardem Patapoutian (@ardemp) shares his personal story of inclusion and how proud he is of his background (something that hasn't always been the case).
