Attending MidAtlantic Synthetic Biology Symposium - happy to see @genegirl007.bsky.social presenting on her work at GATech! “Harnessing synthetic biology for next-generation therapeutics” #synbio #stemcells

Such a fun multi lab holiday party! Happy everything! @alexvlahos.bsky.social @jcmejias.bsky.social

Tell me you got an Amazon package delivered without telling me you had one delivered.

I had the pleasure of chatting with @fox5atlanta.bsky.social about the economic benefits of the growing research communities in #Atlanta. www.fox5atlanta.com/video/1668922

Science square taking shape

Atlanta continues to evolve. The much anticipated "science square" in northwest Atlanta is taking shape one year after a ribbon cutting. FOX 5's Kevyn Stewart has the story.

Happy Father’s Day to all you awesome dads out there!

Don’t miss this great opportunity for a wonderful workshop run by NCI to discuss genetic tools and omics to better understand cancer. Join us to learn and contribute to unraveling the complexities of cancer. Let’s do this together! Details 👇🏼

Last day to apply!

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mamas out there!

Why was 6 afraid of 7? Because 7 8 9! Congrats to my 7th, 8th, and 9th (and final) PhD students who successfully defended their PhDs from U Utah BME. 🎉💕

I’m excited to share or paper that was recently published on engineering platelets ❤️

Communications Biology@commsbio.nature.com · last yr.

Engineered platelets are shown to be promising delivery vehicles for therapeutic proteins due to their ability to circulate in the bloodstream, target specific sites, and release proteins on demand. @genegirl007.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s42...

The moment we have all been waiting for…okay maybe just me. A picture of the first gel in my lab at Tech! 🥰@gtresearchnews.bsky.social

Happy spring! 🥰

The thing about scientific research is that it’s one of the few national investments that’s a clear public good even if you entirely discount the actual ostensible point of it.

Sherry Pagoto, PhD@drsherrypagoto.bsky.social · last yr.

New report shows that NIH grants fueled $95 billion in economic activity and 407,782 jobs in 2024. That's not to mention the countless lives that biomedical research has saved. Show me a better investment than that. www.forbes.com/sites/michae...

Campus was buzzing with PhD student interviews for #CoulterBME. @alexvlahos.bsky.social @jcmejias.bsky.social

I feel seen.

Friendly reminder: if you are waiting on something from a US-based scientist/reviewer/editor, please realize that we're barely making it through each day putting out non-stop fires and trying not to collapse into tears. We're trying our best, but things will take longer right now. Give grace.

Good morning!

Look at this cutie! A mocking bird watching the people in Atlanta all bundled up. #it’scoldoutside.

It’s been fun being in Atlanta for an unusual snow storm. Snow can bring so much joy. And headaches, but I captured some of the joy here. @gtresearchnews.bsky.social @gatechengineers.bsky.social #CoulterBME

The bad news: Many people don’t get enough iron in their diet. The good news: One ounce of dark chocolate has 3.37 mg of iron Ladies, that’s 5.5 ounces a day that you clearly need. Sorry guys, you’ll get your daily allotment with 2.5.

I’m waiting for something exciting to happen so that I can make my first post!
