In 9 years, you might be using a soccer practice as a moment to think about cool data.

Working on a book chapter and checking to make sure all of the citations are present in the text. I’m sure there is a more efficient way to do this that doesn’t involve me taking ibuprofen because I’m leaning over a desk for so long. #ImOld

I think I have a future @mcrompton23 on my hands. And by that I mean a future microbiologist in the Dahl lab @JanUlrikDahl1. Jan has already started recruiting.

I just walked in with discount shrimp!

Sometimes the mentors drop their phone mid picture and end up with pictures like this.

Came in early to get some lab work done. I was excited to be back in the lab. Being in a good mood, I went to flip up an upside down tray that was in the sink to myself so I could put it away. The lip was full of water so I sprayed water all over myself and the lab. #goodstart

Visiting the old stomping grounds for bird and frog reasons but it was nice to see something familiar @AlisonB99479824 @LauraStein09 @KateLaskowski

I’m thankful my 7yo was prepared and had an umbrella in the car that I could this cold and rainy morning. There’s also a 95% chance he’s the reason that my umbrella could no longer be found in the car. #kidstakingmystuff

I just sent an email to colleagues 10 minutes ago trying to give away kid’s stuff

Head into the office to get some work done. Check my pocket as I get out of the car to verify a mask is in there. Get to the door and this is the mask that was in my pocket. I made it work. #sciencedad

We put your hard work to use yesterday. Thank you.
