Our lab website got an update and we got to use a bunch of my drawings! :) This is my personal favorite. https://t.co/gRqEMyiGld #toxoplasma

Thanks to @ASBMB for sharing my work and my story! So incredibly grateful and what a fun time writing this! Scientific communication is sooo important and we include so many more minds when info is accessible Sketching, scribbling and scicomm: https://t.co/AitdzmG0Y1 #scicomm

but I hoped to really bring home that message with a #Toxoplasma parasite taking a dramatic nose dive into a host cell. My second iteration was an attempt to move closer to what this invasion might actually look like (in its simplest form). Which do you like better? #scicomm

Happy Friday! These were my first attempts at an animation to 1) orient my audience to my research and 2) grab the audiences attention! It's one thing to say that #Toxoplasma is an intracellular parasite,

when the PCR works on the first try

I'll be sharing these mostly on LinkedIn ( https://t.co/TwxF8woM2U) so please connect with me if you aren't already or if this is of interest to you :)

I started drawing my own #cartoons for presentations and posters when I first started my #PhD studies. I've decided to start sharing some of these and I've changed my #LinkedIn and X banners to reflect this new era of #scicomm

Today was a special day… full of emotions. I lost a PhD student and got a new postdoc in about one hour! Congratulations Dr. Pedretti! I’m incredibly proud of you… 🥰 #phdlife #phinished #graduation #womeninSTEM

Our lab had two lab birthdays this week! We celebrated with food, a writing workshop, and a new lab t-shirt 😂 #ReeseLabBestLab

asking for a friend - how many graphpad prism licences is multi-year jersey deal for a MLS club?

However, this was an experience and privilege of a lifetime and I’m immensely grateful to where research has taken me. Hoping for a brighter days to come! (Honored to have met, talked with, and given my poster to the legend himself, Dr. Boothroyd 😁🙏🏼)

our 15 hour travel day back to the United States. I've now spent the morning applying for refunds, gathering police reports, and searching for a new (used) car for the 4th time in my 20's 🙃 Hoping for a break soon because I simply do not have the bandwidth for much more 😭 (4/4)

consisting with sleeping in an airport, 4 rescheduled flights, and missing two days of my international conference. Our German vacation was further troubled with 3 days of pouring rain and a cancelled train. We booked an 10 hour bus trip to return to Berlin the day before (3.5/4)

My luck with cars cannot be understated. This is my third paid off car that has been ruined for me and I'm truly at a loss for words and hope. We boarded our flight, determine to leave the uncertainty behind us. This day trip turned into 4 days of travel (3/4)

MY CAR WAS STOLEN from my apartment garage. Never having dealt w theft, I scrambled and tried to do all the right things. The morning of my international flight, I found myself at the Police Department, leaving names and numbers of family members, hoping it would be found (2/4)

The week of a lifetime... As I prepared for my first international trip, I was filled with tons of anxiety and anticipation. I packed my bag a week before my trip, had everything and order, and awaited the 10 day trip to come. The night before my flight to Germany, (1/4)

2024 has been INSANE so far, and I need to brag about it... So let's start with pubs. My lab has put together 8 papers: 3 accepted on PR journals, 5 on @biorxivpreprint on their way. 5 on structural studies of ATTR fibrils (16 cryoEM structures!), 3 on diagnostic development 🔥

Congratulations to the 2024 Ida M. Green Award for Excellence in Scholarship & Citizenship - Maggie Wang (@MaggieWangP), M.S., 4th Year Biomedical Engineering Student, mentored by Dr. Jinming Gao (@biotransistor). Congratulations, Maggie!

“Hey, that’s me!” Quickly discovered a photo of myself from the #DiscoverBMB meeting that was held in San Antonio in March. 😁

Be someone's encouragement.

#newPI #RepresentationMatters "This is what a scientist looks like" at #DiscoverBMB @ASBMB Today I thank all my mentors & mentees for helping me realize that "I can be a scientist too." Thanks to that, that little boy from a rural area of Oaxaca (Mexico) learned to dream!!!
