PhD in Cell Biology
Currently a Postdoc in Anatomy and Cell Biology at the University of Iowa
I love biology and teaching people about what is happening in cells. I also am really interested in microscopy.
I also like cats, horses and horseback riding, fish keeping (I have two aquariums), video games-particularly the Half-Life franchise and Half Life mods, and I have recently gotten into VR (NOT META!) so if you want to chat about any of these topics that would be great!

@NorcalGma2 you need more pictures of him!
@PhiloNeuroScie It's ok. You will be fine. You wouldn't be defending if they didn't think you were capable. Relax.

@bullivant If you are ever in Detroit, the Henry Ford museum bought and restored the bus. It's on display along with a lot of other things from the segregation Era.
Also, another bit of trivia, toward the end of her life, Ms Parks had her rent paid for her by a local millionaire, Peter Ilytch. I think the story is that she was going to lose her home and he helped her financially for the rest of her life.

Protip:
"I include two guest lectures from my university’s librarians: one on literature searching and reference management, and one on “deep reading”. University librarians are, in my experience, eager to help with teaching; I strongly recommend involving them in a writing course (or, for that matter, in any other course)."
We would like to make tungsten needles for doing our dissections. Does anyone know where we can get size 0.008 tungsten wire? We would prefer to have it in the form of 3 ft rods if possible. #Drosophila #microscopy
@Adam_Cadmon1 I like to try to think about everything going on in my cells ( I am a cell biologist). It ultimately gives me a headache and I have to lie down.

Probably my best catch this year from Bluesky.

I will never recover from this student email.
“Good Afternoon Professor Penniman,
Hope you had a great break! I was wondering if it would be acceptable to use sources from the late 1900’s for our final paper (I found an interesting paper from 1994). I there a cut off date of publication? See you tomorrow,”

Check out this great new study led by Katie Schretter, investigating fighting female fruit flies -- who headbutt, shove & fence each other to guard prime egg-laying territory -- to ultimately better understand aggressive behavior in humans. https://www.janelia.org/news/fighting-fruit-flies-help-researchers-understand-why-we-stay-angry

Cool science!
Really proud to share this latest publication with a dream team.
We describe a new Drosophila stock for cGMP imaging. Plus: A microscopy approach that enables FRET analysis made easy with almost any (spectral) confocal.
Plus: #openaccess at really affordable fees.

"Led by German expert Stefanie Haustein, a group of scientists has now calculated the turnover of the “oligopoly” that controls this new market. Using mainly public funds, the scientific community paid the five large publishers $1.06 billion in four years. And according to this estimate, the sum covers only the fees to publish open access studies."
@Manigarm as a grad student an undergrad dressed up as a member of the Spanish inquisition for Halloween. I told my advisor about it and said I hadn't expected that. He thought that was funny
@Manigarm kids these days
Don't want this weekend to end. Ate too much, played a lot of video games, and have been watching Freeman's Mind. Life is good.
@peterdrake and if you drink a diet drink with it, the calories don't count!
