The new and improved manuscript! (aka, peer reviewed, revised, and published). The zebrafish hypochord contributes to Tagln+ cells on the aorta, and early ISV perivascular cells express Tagln... before Pdgfrb. Now with movies! 📽️🦓🐟

Phew, I received the notice of award for my K99 this morning! It’s happening, people! 🫀🐟 Many thanks to my mentor @StratmanLab and the many others who have provided support!

Dr. Amber Stratman, recipient of the Springer Young Investigator Award gave an amazing talk on her latest research, and shared an emotional message of support to all the junior PIs who started during COVID 🏆👑🦸🫀💪
@StratmanLab #NAVBO2023
Aww, thanks Mabruka!!! ☺️
Great presentation!! @ColijnSarah inspired all of us with the beautiful science, very well-done👏👏👏
That's right, come talk to me tonight at #18!!
.@ColijnSarah showing her new exciting project on a centriolar protein found at endothelial cell junctions 🤔 🤓🧑🔬
Stop by her poster later today (#18) to continue the conversation!

Are you at #NABVO2023 @vascularbiology and interested on learning more about the Online Programming Committee #OPC ? Come find the #OPC members around the conference @srvsh_c @MaAlfaidi @ColijnSarah @nickchavkin @tniethamer Rolando and myself! We are recruiting members for 2024!
🤩 Not only is she an outstanding scientist, but she's an amazingly supportive mentor, both in the lab and out. Such a well deserved award!
And the Springer Junior Investigator Award goes to... 🥁
Dr. Amber Stratman @StratmanLab 🥳🏆
Dr. Stratman will present her talk "Hemodynamic regulated genes that alter vascular development" on 10/18 at #NAVBO2023
Registration: navbo.org/vb2023/
6yo showing me the hundredth new gymnastic/dance move she invented that day: Can you do this?
Me: no
6yo: what about this?
Me: no
6yo: how about this?
Me: no
6yo: can you do this?
Me not even bothering to look anymore: no

When you naively do a little experiment that turns into a BIG one->
I just wanted to look at Tagln and Pdgfrb expression in mural cells of developing 🦓🐟.
We found new MC progenitor cells AND see hypochord cells persist past 2 dpf 😱

Celebrating Rod's retirement! Rod is a role model for many of us and has done what most scientists wish to accomplish in his over 40 year scientific career: discovered a gene, discovered the protein, named the protein, understood the protein, developed a drug based on the protein
This week, Dr. Rod McEver marks a pair of major milestones: Today, he’s celebrating his 75th birthday.
And tomorrow, after 35 years as a scientist, program chair, and vice president of research at OMRF, will be his first day of retirement! 🥳omrf.org/2023/03/05/a-retire…
5yo: Mama watch me!
Me: ok
5: No you need to watch!
Me: I am
5: Look!
Me: I am actively looking at you
5: Mama look!
Me: I don't know how else to convey that my eyes are pointed in your direction
2yo: Mama look!
*I briefly look at 2yo
5: MAMA! You. Didn't. WATCH!!!😡
Remembering the time my 5 yo daughter asked me,
"Mama, can boys be scientists, too?"
Me (external): Yeah sweetie, anyone can be anything!
Me (internal): I am a warriooorrrrrrr!! Fight the pAtRiArChY!!!
@Momademia
My 2 year old came to me asking for help because the child-proof outlet covers are "stuck" and she wants to stick a small metal object in there.
My 5 yo had her first intruder drill at school today. She processes things by drawing them so she made this book and read it to me when I got home.
Here's the book and how she read it to me. I have so many feelings.
Her: It says "Be Quiet" ... and that's me!
Me: What's happening on this page?
Her: That's the end. There's black there and a clock.
Me: *this feels very ominous"
