Today is March 14 (3.14) – Pi day. The date today resembles 3.14159, the common approximation of the mathematical constant Pi, or π. This concurrence has given rise to an annual celebration from 1:59 pm - also the time of publication of this post (CET). What is Pi? Understanding Pi is essential if you want to make calculations for circles, cylinders, spheres, and anything circular, even an ellipse. Pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. It doesn't matter how big or small the circle is - the ratio stays the same. Properties like this that stay the same when you change other attributes are called constants. How are you celebrating Pi day?

"Don't work too hard!" says Paul Nurse. We especially hope that the medicine laureate isn't working too hard today as it is his birthday. Nurse received the 2001 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine for his work related to discoveries of key regulators of the cell cycle.

@gogo_gopss showing us how @Labfreed can study minute human resistance arterioles using videomicroscopy and a pressure myograph. Very cool stuff in this paper #HYPHIP! @HyperAHA
Here is a biorender graphic showing our technique - we basically visualize the arteriole (which is inside an organ chamber) using bright field microscopy, and then can see it change its diameter with different treatments! #HYPHIP @HyperAHA

Research admins help PIs with quite a bit and certainly cannot be outlined in 140 characters. However, to our research admin team at @WashUanesthesia: we appreciate ALL your hard work & support for our scientists! 👏👏👏 Good read from @Nature: nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
