Most people think of big choices they made in their career path: where they went to school, whom they worked for etc. However, little, everyday choices (how you treat others) make the bulk of career paths; be kind; making good ālittleā choices help you make great ābigā decisions.

Just our campus's way of reminding you that you can weather any storm and blossom! #vibecheck

Yāall, Iāve joined the 2%. I was promoted to Professor!

This is an exciting milestone, but Iām only now realizing this probably means I donāt classify as mid-career anymore. š¬
Now what? Send tips and words if wisdom. šš½
Microaggressions are so harmful. Iām trying to teach my students how to take action against it or be an ally when they witness it. But itās much harder to deal with microaggressions when it comes from a person with authority like a teacher or a boss, any tips? #AcademicChatter
First year postdocs: How long do you reserve time to read scientific literature? Some papers I can skim through in a few minutes, others can take me 2 hours. I would like to find a good balance š¤ #postdoc #postdoclife
