"One email at a time, one informational interview after another, I became comfortable, confident, and strategic in building my network of mentors." One mentor isn’t enough. On #NationalMentoringDay, read this #ScienceWorkingLife essay from 2021 to learn how Erika Moore built

We can’t always leave a toxic situation, but when we do, it is not running away or quitting. It is intentionally considering the options and choosing something better for yourself.

Mentors can’t achieve your goals for you, but they can: -help you focus on what you want to do -inspire you to believe in what you are capable of doing -offer practical supports to equip you for success And we can each do these things for someone else.

PUI chem folks, ACS Omega is doing a call for PUI papers! Also, the publication charges are covered for PUIs that participate in the ACS program! axial.acs.org/cross-discipli…

Sometimes I hear people say that you have to be extroverted or charismatic to be a good leader. I disagree. Think about the leaders you respect. There’s a good chance there are some quiet or introverted people on that list. There are many different ways to be a great leader.

Love how WashU Chem students celebrate a snowy first day of the semester!!🐻♥️💚

I don’t know who needs to hear this but your PhD doesn’t need to be perfect. It just needs to be finished.

400 people w/ doctorates read the same research abstract where the lead authors name was either male or female. Participants felt the discovery in the abstract was more important when the author was male & spent more time reading it (114s male; 98s female).forbes.com/sites/kimelses…

Leaders likely don’t have all of the answers or solutions right now, but we can empower those around us to navigate uncertainty so that we can collectively stand up for our rights and shared values. My op-ed today in Inside Higher Ed offers some ideas for how we can do this:

Great article about leading during uncertainty

Huge congratulations to Dr. Alex Quillin🧬🔬🧬for successfully defending her PhD🎓🎓 Her groundbreaking work on leveraging biomolecules to illuminate the landscape of RNA in cells and tissues is truly inspiring. The future is bright — and it starts today🚀🚀 #PhDDefense #ProudLab

For 75 years, the federal government has partnered with academic institutions, fueling discoveries that have transformed medicine and saved lives. Even with philanthropy and industry investments in science, federal support remains the bedrock of long-term innovation.

This #AAPIHM, I want to give a shout out to dedicated colleagues who do so much to mentor, teach, lead and inspire deeper conversations. Hope comes not only from knowledge, but from a sense of shared belonging 🌱

The #Nicholaslab is at The American Association of Immunologists (AAI) #aai2025 Find my trainees today to learn what we've been up to the past couple years. Check out posters by Naveena Ujagar Gabriela Pacheco Sanchez and a talented undergrad in the lab.

Anyone who wants to call scientific research “wasteful spending” should have to get past Reviewer 2. Seriously, I wish people knew how hard we work for far less $ than could be made in industry, all because we care about helping society and mentoring the next generation.

Chem folks interested in teaching, we are hiring a full-time non-tenure track teaching professor for the fall: academics.depaul.edu/faculty-jobs/P…

The NASA Open Science Data Repository (expansion of NASA GeneLab) has enabled biological & health discoveries helping humanity become multi-planetary by helping life thrive in deep space on Mars and 🌘 OSDR stores precious data anyone can use and analyze, plus a community of

I’ve been meaning to try out posting professional development advice via reels. Here’s my take on leaders not needing to always have the answers. Let me know what you think of this format!
