Women, we need to work harder to get noticed for ruining science.

Pretrained using 335,645 whole-slide images, a foundation model is developed to provide representations for slide- and patient-level tasks. It is capable of performing clinical tasks even in data-scarce scenarios, such as rare cancer diagnosis. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-025-03982-3

I want to be part of the group, political or otherwise, that has puzzled opponents coming to the conclusion that The Kindness Is The Point.

On election day, I wanna announce that I am recruiting social psych PhD students for my lab at UIC. My lab focuses on racial identities (esp Asian, Latino, MENA Americans) and intra-minority conflict/ coalition. So please tell your students to pick me! All details on my website: www.pbandjlab.com

“Meanwhile, the [Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, the EU’s initiative for doctoral and postdoctoral research] received 17,058 applications — the most for any funding initiative in the 40-year history of the EU’s research framework programmes.” www.ft.com/content/cd80...

NEW: Children faced more risk of rare heart problems after Covid-19 infection than they did after taking the Pfizer/BioNTech mRNA vaccine, a big three-year study of under-18s in England has found. Important evidence for debates over vaccine safety, particularly in the US. www.ft.com/content/231d...

It's been a long time since I have been able to glee scroll any social media. I will enjoy it today.

Today I'm announcing a new digital textbook 📖🖥️, "An Introduction to OME-Zarr for Big Bioimaging Data". ome-zarr-book.readthedocs.io

You African Studies majors out there: you too can become mayor of New York City!!!

Oh thank goodness.

In case you weren't nervous about a potential future event yet today.

I am a boring old lady and I already dropped off my mail in ballot weeks ago, but YOU CAN STILL VOTE TOMORROW (well, some of you). These elections REALLY MATTER, so please don't sit them out. Apathy is our enemy.

The time changed but I stayed the same.

Tonight I went trick or treating with a gaggle of little kids and at the end they gifted me all of their almond joys. I am the mom I always dreamed I would be.

Happy Halloween! Would love to see a thread of jack-o-lanterns and costumes!!

This gal wins science Halloween!

My horse had her yearly physical and she is as healthy as one. What cracks me up is on their report they call her Fancy Strack. 😂

I get TDAP for the babies. Plus, it's only every ten years.

She won funniest costume at her whole school 😆

@natbiomedeng.nature.com had a 🔥🔥 week this week! Why don't we have any followers on this site 😆😭

At least I still have one little one left. My daughter is going as a Labubu riding an inflatable dinosaur.

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.

My son has reached the age of being very self-conscious about the Halloween costume he chooses. Not wanting to seem lame or like he's trying too hard. It's a pity because last year he was all in (Rich guy wearing bling riding an inflatable dinosaur).

How cool!!!

My grandma would have turned 90 today. We still miss her every day. I am still sour about it. About her catching covid, about the subsequent pneumonia, about ICU syndrome, about not being able to do any more than we did do. About losing her. Nevertheless her memory brings me joy.

More than 1,300 staffers at the health agency got notices they were fired — but more than half were reinstated. The cuts will hobble some divisions, employees say. n.pr/4n1JBbJ

I am recruiting a PhD student in microbial ecology for my lab at the University of Florida at the Ft. Lauderdale REC. My lab investigates the role of soil and plant-associated microorganisms in ecosystem functions, with an emphasis on biogeochemical cycles.

Was recently reminded by a mentor that leading by example also means taking vacation.

Today my daughter's school had a walk-a-thon and I got to hear around 400 little kids singing Soda Pop from Kpop demon hunters. Glorious.

There is still plenty of time to apply! Feel free to reach out to me with questions, and please mention our ad to your colleagues or trainees!

Voted today! I hope this wasn't my last free and fair election. What a thing to worry about.

I hope this Nobel Prize gets people talking meaningfully about our amazing immune systems and the importance of basic research to human health (and funding basic research). I am also glad young women get to see that women can not only work at this level, but that those who do can get recognized.

What an amazing opportunity to do impactful work in bioimage analysis!!!!

The sure-fire way to get over jet lag is to suffer for a few days with either exhaustion or insomnia.

One can only aspire to someday have some part of themselves discovered in a vulture's nest.

Every time I am away, it feels like my kids are so grown up when I get home. In the ten days I was in Germany, my son got tests results showing he exceeds expectations for sixth grade in all subjects and my daughter started biking without training wheels! Also I swear they are both taller.

I still mask on public transit. If people with PhDs in the life sciences are not doing it, who will? Also I am still afraid of long COVID. If I can avoid it, I will try.
