Hi Tina,
Yay for Sci Comm! I’ve got a mini-session in Sept25 that you may like. As a SciCommer for 25 yrs, I now train in it (this is also me @commitAUS ).
Or - if a group would like a private sesh we can do that. I have lived experience with ME/CFS.

"Our results reveal that whenever handwriting movements are included as a learning strategy, more of the brain gets stimulated, resulting in the formation of more complex neural network connectivity...typewriting do[es] not activate...networks the same way that handwriting does."
This is a very useful and considered thread. It does make me terribly sad that it is information that still requires sharing.

At the risk of having my DMs blow up with messages, I'm looking for some guests for @einstein_agogo on @3RRRFM to round out the calendar until the end of the year. Specifically, PhDs, EMCRs in STEM are most welcome. Give me a yell, in particular if you have never done radio before.
Congratulations Ash!
Pretty stoked to win an ASBMB poster prize at @bmh2024Melb, alongside fellow eye CRISPR PhD candidate and friend Lachi Staker 🧬✂️👀
