I went to Dr. Mona Monfared @ucdavis biochem class today to break the news that she is one the recipients of the Distinguished Teaching Award for Undergraduate Teaching. I read the citation and her current students endorsed it. Congratulations, Mona! @Jen_Cash_11 @DanStarrUCDavis

For students still polishing grad app statements: if you wrote a GRFP proposal, *mention it.* Faculty understand what you went through, and it says something about you as a scholar.

I am so saddened to hear of Christine's passing. She was a wonderful mentor and fostered curiosity, rigor, and independence among us in her lab. Thank you @hitenmadhani for sharing the link that highlights Christine's brilliance as a scientist. https://t.co/iAcvAPTxuK

Still looking for a postdoc to work on how mitochondria repair their DNA damage and carry out recombination without using the genes that are needed for repairing/recombining chromosomes in the nucleus. Please retweet!

I’m not sure about other fields, but it goes to show that in science, the ties that bind us together last for decades. So thankful for all my many brilliant students, science friends, and colleagues over my career.

The second paper @GeneticsGSA was co-authored by Kelly Komachi. We were classmates in grad school @UCSF way back in the 90’s. Maybe before @DanielElnatan and @CahoonCori were even born?

Today the lab had double celebration with the publication of two papers within ten minutes of each other. So happy the co-author Dr. @DanielElnatan was there to celebrate. He, @CahoonCori and James McGehee, all undergrads, started the @pnas project >10 years ago.
