Billie Jean King just dropped the ceremonial first puck for the PWHL! So excited for this league! Let's GOOOO! Happy New Year!
Preparing the next generation of scientists is so much fun! My program, Interdisciplinary Scientific Immersion for entering PhD students, has just been funded by NSF Innovations in Graduate Education!! #WashU leads the way!
Now that the grant is done and edited, I’m taking a brief daydream break imagining how future generations will have AI complete the referencing 🤣

5-7 BILLION DOLLARS left unspent in MO and not a single Republican voted to give teachers just a $1,000 pay raise.
In 1999 Dr. Nancy Hopkins used this to document one aspect of gender inequity at MIT. In 2023 there is still a lot to be angry and disappointed about. @awn_wustl @wi_stem #InternationalWomensDay Symposium was informative and a bit intense… for good reasons. Still work to do!!

NEW: The family of the teen gunman who murdered a teacher and student in a St. Louis school had recently called police and asked them to take his AR-15. There's no Red Flag Law in Missouri, so police gave the gun to a third-party, but the teen got it back. abcnews.go.com/US/st-louis-s…

Over four years ago, Brian protested with March For Our Lives to demand action on gun violence in our schools and communities.
This week, he was shot in both hands and through his neck by an AR-15 at his school in St. Louis. He jumped out of a window to save his life.

On hold with 911 is really fucked up when your daughter texts to tell you there is a school shooter at CVPA @saintlouismayor

Recently, I’ve been asked about good tools for plotting variants on proteins. I currently use
MuPIT (mupit.icm.jhu.edu/MuPIT_Inte…)
Protter (wlab.ethz.ch/protter/start/)
DOG (dog.biocuckoo.org/)
See pics for examples from my lab’s recent papers. #genomics #protein @TNTurnerLab
