This is the rejection letter for the work that just won the Nobel Prize. Don’t stop believing! .I should save all of mine and maybe one day some stranger will think it’s an amazing relic and tweet it.

I looked up an old paper of mine using my name and AI overview told me this: "The "PF" likely refers to post-feminist, a term related to her research on the societal and cultural context of HPV and cervical cancer". PF are my initials. AI not so smart 🤣.

OMG no pubmed for at least 24 hours this weekend. What am I supposed to do, find a hobby? UGH

Amazing time at the chromosomal instability workshop (thank you @TheMarkFdn !). So lucky to be a part of this incredible community. The science discussed here is just 🤯.

Mentoring these incredible students is one of the greatest joys of my life. End of semester outing to celebrate a grant, their awards, and a great semester! @UWMadison

The great Bert van der Kogel just gave me his latest textbook! We are so lucky to have him visit monthly as an emeritus professor. My whole office fills up with students for intense radbio discussions! 🤓🧬☢️ #radbio

To all of you radiation scientists planning to apply for the NIH PAIRS funding mechanism (PAR-22-198) for June 5, I just learned that it was cancelled (though the website states it is active). Bad news, but I guess now I can go drink margaritas 🍹.

The first ever female associate prof in GU and it’s 2025???! WHATTT? .But also, that’s amazing! @sophia_kamran is such a rockstar and totally deserves that honor!.

Soooooo proud of my undergraduate students who all got prestigious research fellowships this year! #PipLab @UWCarbone @UWMadison

Fun day teaching local high schoolers why research is important and showing them some cool radiation biology! Thanks to my lab for their enthusiasm and sorry about the crystal violet on your pants 🫣@UWCarbone

I saw 2 patients today who have recurrent and metastatic breast cancer because they lost insurance 5 years ago and couldn’t get the follow up they needed. It’s shameful and we need to do better. But it’s 2025 and I don’t see that happening.

It was -12 degrees yesterday (that’s fake fur!), the NIH is non-operational, so I guess I’ll be hibernating till 2029. ✌🏻

Sunday treatment crew! Killing more cancer before Christmas.

Cozy lab gathering and Santa brought nerdy mugs 🤩
