I listen to sports podcasts on my walk to work in the morning. It’s 20 minutes of time that is almost exclusively devoid of work/medicine/biology. Every once in a while these worlds collide. Thinking of Jonathan Tjarks and his family today. caringbridge.org/visit/jonathan…

For those staring down the deadline of grant like me...amazing way to create space is to shave off blocks of text with schematics and timelines (for things like a career dev plan, I'm using Time.Graphics right now). Really helps to make things look pretty but also succinct.


Here is an idea: in addition to tags related to biology, each publication has a tag list of techniques utilized (IF, ATAC-Seq, elastase), searchable on pubmed as well as whatever reference organizer you use (I use Lean Library Workspace (formerly Sciwheel)) so you can find more easily how others did things.
