Officially earned my PhD from @MITdeptofBE! Here’s 1 lesson I learned in each year of grad school:🧵 1. Pick advisors that care about you. Not just the science, but your happiness & life goals. Your life WILL fall apart ≥1 time in grad school & you will need advisor support.

Helping get the @AethonTx lab off the ground & getting back into the lab full time attacking new [hard] scientific questions has re-energized me in a way I didn’t know possible. JOIN THE STARTUP. TAKE THE RISK. You’ll feel 26 again 🤓 – at Brooklyn, NY

The best training for a startup is to do everything yourself in academia, and to outsource everything in industry. In a startup, time vs money is a constant balancing act – at Queens, NY

Starting a #startup update: 6 months later, the lab is open for business 🤓 The amount of steps between signing a lab lease to actually starting the science is wild but looking around today, I can’t believe how far we’ve come. PINCH ME!! – at New York, NY

I have been scheduled on 7 different cancelled flights from CLE > JFK/LGA over the past 48 hours from @Delta and @AmericanAir. At first it was weather, but now it certainly is not. Send funny jokes my way 😭 – at Cleveland, OH

Today, our Ascend #MS finally came to life… ROCK ON!🤘 In <4 mo, we’ve turned a lab storage room into a top-notch MS room, with no delays/issues, despite countless teams/vendors required to finish construction & get all the pieces in place for today. I’m thrilled! #startup – at New York, NY

If you think you may start/join a biotech #startup someday, I recommend being EHS rep for your PhD/postdoc lab. Realizing now as we set up @AethonTx how fluent I am in safety/waste lingo! 🗑️♻️ – at Brooklyn, NY

This gets to what I always say to the scientists around me: giving credit to others is free, so why not be generous. – at Manhattan, NY

I recently interviewed a strong candidate. She generously credited other researchers whose methods enabled her research. This created a strong positive impression about her. Deservingly crediting others does not diminish our contributions. ◼️It frames them in a helpful context.

Starting a #startup day 122: Hardhat tour of the construction in my new mass spec room 🤓 Most startup lab spaces can’t easily accommodate the HVAC needs of a mass spec, so extensive construction is required. It’s SO exciting to see the room nearing completion!!

I’m delighted to share our @NatureCancer paper by Anne Kraemer et al. nature.com/articles/s43018-0… Our objective was to investigate whether there are substantial differences in the antigenic landscape presented in tumors that are T cell inflamed versus those that are non-inflamed.
