    I have been hearing a lot recently from female mentees about discomfort with sharing accomplishments publicly on platforms like Twitter. Let’s amplify the voices of female scientists and also support them to find their own voice to share accomplishments.

    I hope we can all be extra gracious and show kindness and love to parents of young kids under 5 who don't have the option to get their kids vaccinated in the omicron surge. Sending peace and strength. I see you all. I haven't forgotten how hard it is to have unvax kiddos at home

    Evidence suggests that if a woman asks the first question in an academic seminar, more women will ask questions subsequently. Fellow #womeninSTEM - consider asking the first question @ImplementCollab #SIRC2019 so that others may follow!

    Behind every success is 100 failures. Remember that,#academictwitter! On this windy Monday AM, my constant refreshing of Commons resulted in an ND. Sharing to normalize failure. Every review makes your science stronger, irrespective of outcome. Also, bourbon.

    I won't tweet the article because I will not propagate misogyny, hatefulness, and derision toward doctorates and women. I'm disappointed in @WSJ and an apology is warranted to DR @DrBiden. Let's come together - not create more division and hurt in this time of grief and struggle.

    I am 28 followers away from 2000! Can you help me get there? I’m an associate professor @penn, I live and breathe implementation science, and I tweet about #impsci, children’s mental health, firearm safety promotion, and amplifying women in academic medicine. Follow me?
