Spread the word if you can.
We have an unused stopped flow accessory from Applied Photophysics. We traded in our Chirascan CD instrument so we have no use for this anymore. Reach out if you are interested and can find a home for this setup. Will ofcourse only work with a Chirascan!

When I was living in Germany during my PhD I got an encouraging letter by mail saying: “congratulations you’re now a part of the social security system. You only have 6 months and 40 years left until you can collect your first pension” 😂😂 it was written precisely like that!

October is Pregnancy and Infant loss awareness month.
This month we remember the babies carried but never held, those held but not taken home and those who came home but couldn’t stay.

Sending love to those who have experienced this tragedy ❤️

People who enter a place and stop right in front of the door preventing the heavy flow of people to flow smoothly into a place: 👎🏼 shame on you

Netflix putting four 75 second ads in a 40 min episode is just wild….

I have a B.Sc, a M. Sc and a PhD. Yet, I do not have the motor coordination it takes to draw curly braces properly.

I will likely be recruiting a new postdoc early next year, working on protein allostery (can be either method development or applications). Please reach out to my GT email address if interested.

Sleeps too little: gets a headache
Sleeps a lot: gets a headache

Please, can I just not have a headache? 🥲

That’s funny, mine does it too, all the time. Every time I type “smh” it switches to SSN (sequence similarity network) and when I type “sad” it switches to SDS 😂 that’s just two of MANY
