For 8 weeks, 40 hours per week, students get 15 per hour, a housing stipend, a food stipend, and if needed, computer assistance. Yes, they can do this program where ever they are as it is a virtual program. Please share broadly!
REMINDER: Are you an undergraduate student interested in a virtual summer research experience in the biosciences? If so, check out NSURP 2023! Apply here: etap.nsf.gov/award/407/oppor… Applications close March 31st. #DiversityandInclusion #STEM

This thread's an interesting and thoughtful read but assuming that people have a choice in where to go to grad school assumes privilege, which does harken back to the point that you shouldn't have to live in the MOST EXPENSIVE PLACES IN THE US to be trained. #poorinacademia

I got an F on my first high school chemistry test and I told my teacher I would never become a chemist because I hated it :,)
Flex your lowest academic low score. To remind us that almost everyone fails at some point in life but it isn't the end of the road. Just a memory in the end. Mine was 27/100 in Engineering Math 2, just a year after I'd scored 99 in 12th boards. Much needed kick in my butt.

Shout out to Maria in the @AmericanAir in the customer service center at DFW terminal C. She was at getting me rebooked and helping me navigate an unfamiliar airport!

Hey #AcademicChatter Does anyone have any suggestions/experience with getting accommodations for their disabilities for graduate TA responsibilities that their willing to share? Specifically surrounding invisible disabilities? DMs are open! #AcademicMentalHealth #DisabledinSTEM

Ok so you’ve recapitulated the 15 million year history of a protein from molecular to biophysical change. But HAVE YOU assembled a pop up castle on the first try? (The answer is no, it’s never been done). Summary of the instructions: put it together it looks like this.

#PoorInAcademia thank you @sabrinastronomy for telling your story. Despite wanting diversity the system still assumes that you have financial stability if you make it through the gates.
i think a lot about how people in academia shamed me for taking a summer off to do an internship in tech which paid 3x my yearly salary as a physics graduate student. they figured i was leaving for industry already or was not interested enough in my field of astrophysics.

Happy to share our story on how megakaryocyte reprogramming in breast cancer produces platelets that promote metastasis. Thanks to all of our collaborators who saw this over the finish line! @SandraMcAllist4 @JosepItaliano @BrighamHeme @isabellecarlota science.org/doi/epdf/10.1126…

Everyone is sharing this #PLOSCompBio article but allow me to jump on the bandwagon. It really isn't that hard to support students in STEM from diverse backgrounds. #PoorInAcademia dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.…

#HappyNationalComingOutDay I'm so glad to be out with all my identities. My life is so much happier and fuller now than it was before! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

So tired of having to tell people that my unusual CV is due to being poor and a primary caregiver to my mother for 10 years. It feels like a sign of weakness. We need more established PIs like @HarmitMalik to normalize this. #poorinacademia
Replying to @HarmitMalik
It occurred to me that likely scenario is that many of them did not survive such a ‘break’ to compete for grants or promotions because our system deems it so unusual that someone would have to take a break for childcare or illness.

So awesome to have star mentors like @CterminiPhD who know about the hidden curriculum of graduate school. #PoorInAcademia (But also sad because there is a hidden curriculum😪)
I get requests from amazingly talented prospective grad students to meet to talk about my lab, the program, mentoring, etc... I love it. But the time commitment piles up quickly. It also feels unfair to students who don't have insider knowledge to reach out to faculty...

Since text-rich posters are really impossible to absorb when you’re at a busy conference, I love this format for the Background section of a poster! I wonder what #medTwitter thinks about it? 👍🏼 or 👎🏽

Serious #FirstGen #impostersyndrome setting in when asking people to write recommendation letters for me. They are willing and able, but it still feels like I'm placing an undo burden on them. (I'm no spring chicken but I can't seem to shake this out of my system) #poorinacademia
