My toddler is sleeping in 20 min intervals tonight, so I’m going to do a thread about returning to work from maternity leave. There are 5 things I want to cover. 1. Pumping 2. Daycare and illness 3. Sleep and memory 4. Time 5. Demands. This is based on my experience in Aus 1/12

It's been a long time coming Arutha! Excited to finally work with Joan, Nataly, and yourself and develop #bioimage transmission risk prediction algorithms for #COVID19 maternal and fetal biopsies.
Proud to be part of a @QUT #ECR team with @MCAllenby @DrRohl investigating vertical transmission of #COVID19 @qut_ihbi @nanostringtech @COVIDcritical @TRI_info @tri_australia @QUTSciEng

Cancer is remarkable at hijacking the tumor microenvironment to progress. See how cancer cells use a fibroblast (red) to escape a tumor spheroid. We continue to study the biophysical interaction between a tumor and its microenvironment. #WorldCancerResearchDay @IBECBarcelona

Who's got good ideas of what to do during the awkward moments before class starts on zoom? In person, students chat among themselves and I can get my stuff set up, but it's often an awkward silence on zoom.
