Cell biologist and biophysicist studying evolutionary cell biology.
I'm interested in how amoebae divide, especially relatives of the "brain-eating amoeba"
I study this with microscopy, image analysis, and comparative genomics.
Postdoc at UMass Amherst Biology, PhD in Biophysics from Stanford.
I also love jazz and nature photography!

(Please boost) Hey is there anyone on fedi that currently or has ever in the past worked as a librarian? Could you comment
1. An average day at work
2. Education requirements and what school is like
3. Average pay
4. Bonus: experiences with being autistic/neurodiverse, chronically ill or disabled in any way.
I’m sick of struggling to find work that accommodates my disabilities, I want stability but not at the cost of my well-being.
Now that we have entered Late Fall, who's up for a thread of this year's #fallcolors? It was an especially delightful year in Amherst, MA.
Reply with pictures from your area!

I have a funded PhD position on a super-cool project on Indigenous Quantitative Methods at @MUNGeog in St. John's, NL. It has a legit funding package. Please spread the word!

My University is now recruiting studentships on our MRC DTP Programme in Interdisciplinary Biomedical Research (IBR)!
These are fully funded, 4 year (1 year MSc + 3 year PhD) Studentships. Aim is to do cross-discipline work in biomedical science. Great for maths/physics/CS grads to do biomed or for bio/chem grads looking to branch out.

Hi there new mastodon and fediscience friends! I'm Anna. I work in #MolecularEcology and #ConservationGenetics. I use #DNA (from threatened species, museum specimens, #eDNA, #sciencepoop...) to study wildlife and inform #conservation and management. I post sciencey stuff, and also share my #CameraTrap and #WildOz pics… oh and maybe pics of my rescue dogs sneak in too :)

A video of the fascinating interphase HeLa cell data set from OpenOrganelle.janelia.org:

Data acquired and segmented at #HHMIJanelia by the Hess Lab, Saalfeld Lab, and CellMap Project Team led by Aubrey Weigel.
I am a cell biologist and biophysicist interested in the evolution of cell complexity, especially in the cytoskeleton. Currently I am studying how amoebae divide, specifically relatives of the "brain-eating amoeba" Naegleria. I study this using #microscopy, image analysis, and comparative genomics.
I'm a postdoc at UMass Amherst, and previously I was at Stanford University for my PhD in Biophysics. Outside the lab I love jazz and nature #photography!
