An eye-opening experience recently with a class by Chicagoan Ira Sukrungruang on the value of using multiple authorial voices in #memoir. #authorvoice is more nuanced than traditional materials teach. Can't wait to share what I learned in this @crafttalks sponsored workshop in an upcoming blogpost!

Jumping on this trend... I asked #chatgpt to make a caricature based on my job and everything it knows about me.

How well do you think it's done?

Perks of the job, honestly.

Quote from A Greek God Got Me Pregnant.

I’m not sure this quote is the most representative. The story is actually quite funny & has many funny one-liners. But this line hits me every time. Hope my voice shows.

I walked through mountains, under stars that did not blink.
I crossed borders without maps, oceans without mercy.
Feet blistered, heart heavy, but always—forward.

We’ve been thinking about how people consume their news & how we can better share research published in JCS. We came up with ‘JCS snapshots’, which allow the #cellbio community to hear and see the key research findings from the authors in these short talks.
