Yesterday at the "Planetary #CellBiology" session of #CellBio2025, chaired by Amy Gladfelter, we explored how cell and #MolecularBiology discoveries connect to planetary health, informed by voices from science, education and funding. 🧪 American Society for Cell Biology#CellBiology

So many amazing talks at day 1 of #cellbio2025 was absolutely torn between sessions but managed to catch @gzaffagnini.bsky.social discussing how oocytes maintain proteostasis with endolysosomal vesicular assemblies (ELVAs)

Just bonkers cool stuff at #cellbio2025 “Cells at the Extremes” session starting with Andy Garcia giving a great talk on how archaea modify their membranes to survive extreme habitats 🌡️

Amazing start to #cellbio2025 with a mentoring keynote by Dr. Margaret Werner Washburne! So sad to have missed the first part but what an inspirational talk about resilience and imagination in the face of challenges!

Gonna try to post impressions/takeaways from talks while at #cellbio2025 (mostly to force myself to take better notes but also cause it’s fun 😅)

Main principles she taught students: * Know your heart * Look for the positive or the blessing in everything * Embrace who you are and bring it to the table * Show gratitude/finish well #CellBio2025

Packed room for the opening mentoring keynote by Maggie Werner Washburne talking about the importance of imagination in science and persistence #CellBio2025

Someone pinch me because I can’t believe Martin Chalfie came to my poster at #ASCB2024 #CellBio2024! PhD Bucket List Item No.662: chat about my project with a Nobel Laureate ✅

PhD Bucket List Item No. 283: meet sci twitter(🦋?) celeb IRL ✅ Thanks @pracheeac.bsky.social for sharing insights on curiosity driven science @arcadiascience.com!!

PhD Bucket List No. 3034: Meet someone from @nightsciencepod.bsky.social IRL ✅ Thanks @prakashlab.bsky.social for the great feedback! Thanks @monicabettencourt.bsky.social @gladfelterlab.bsky.social @samreckpeterson.bsky.social for organizing an amazing session & opportunity to share our work!

Great to see so much interest on our ASCB/EMBO mtg session on #cellbiology4climateresilience. If you are interested in the topic - register in our amazing EMBO workshop in Lisbon @embopress.org meetings.embo.org/event/25-cli....

Survived my first ever conference talk at #ASCB #CellBio2024! Grateful to my PI @joshuagruber.bsky.social for the opportunity & for bearing with the corny jokes in the slides 🫡

Fantastic #ASCB #CellBio2024 meeting here in San Diego. Would like to highlight our student @abbasz.bsky.social talk this afternoon in the Climate Change session on mammalian-algae endosymbiosis.

Gotta hand it to #drosophila researchers—y’all never miss when naming things 🫡

Science is hard but sometimes you’ll randomly realize you get to pick the 🧠 of people that are like *the* expert on things for ur project and I think that’s kinda neat

“Samples were prepared as previously described” The previous description:

1st Committee meeting in t-1.5h… Adding meme slides cause u can’t stress failing as a scientist if ur stressing not being funny instead 🫡

*looking out the window after making plates for next week* We saved the daylight… but at what cost 🥲
