So glad to see this superstar, Dr. Carolyn Sangokoya, @rnahelix.bsky.social recognized for her founding of WPSS, which has been a huge source of support in my career path!

Getting ready! Where will you be tomorrow? @standupforscience.bsky.social

Hi, scientists. You're seeing what we all are: USAID illegally blown up, 20 yr olds dumping code into the Treasury's seven-trillion-dollar payment system, Senators and House members joining protests at Treasury today... It's a lot. It's a national crisis. What should you do now? 🧵 🧪 1/x

Research supplements to support URM mentees are set to expire today. I met the person who developed this mechanism, Clifton Poodry, at an NSF meeting last fall; he is so inspiring. This supplement has funded thousands of mentees including myself. Devasted to see it canceled, and with no notice.

Excited to share a new preprint from the lab. Our first venture into dissecting how metabolism contributes to the distinct functional potential of neonatal immune cells - in this case naive CD4+ T cells and their capacity for Treg differentiation. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
