Incredibly happy for Dr. Kate. I was lucky to join the lab around the same time as Kate and saw first hand how hard she worked to build up new projects in the group. Big congrats!.

Friday was my last day in the @MichaudelLab ☹️ While I will deeply miss all of my friends from lab, I'm looking forward to starting the next chapter of my life in PA. I have made so many amazing memories at TAMU and I have grown so much as a scientist and a person 😃

What an axe-citing way to end the year! Our lab celebrated another great semester by throwing lots of sharp things, having our annual holiday dinner, and finishing with a secret Santa gift exchange! Happy Holidays from the Michaudel Lab! 🪓🎅🎁

A huge congratulations to Dr. Ting-Wei (Tim) Hsu (@timothy791210) on a successful dissertation defense, and becoming our group's very first PhD!! While we're sad to see him go, we were so excited to celebrate him and wish him the best of luck for his career at Argonne NL!

This post takes me back to my favorite job before I got into chemistry. I worked at a movie theatre for several years and will never forget my mom always telling me I smelled like popcorn when I came home from my shift 😂.
