Personality is how you respond on a typical day. Character is how you show up on a hard day.
It's easy to demonstrate fairness, integrity, and generosity when things are going well.
The real question is whether you stand by those values when the deck is stacked against you.
Happy New Year! π If your 2025 resolution is to finally get your lab life together (read: #NewPIs), youβre not alone. A few people have requested I share how we use automation to survive:

"Here, we show that this Ab appears to be unreliable due to providing false-positive signals at the expected molecular weight of Bax in immunoblotting experiments and likewise provides false-positive signals in immunofluorescence-based detection of Bax expression"

Great minds donβt think alike. They challenge each other to think differently.
The people who teach you the most are the ones who share your principles but not your thought processes.
Converging values draw you to similar questions. Diverging views introduce you to new answers.
When groups meet to brainstorm, good ideas are lost. People bite their tongues due to conformity pressure, noise, and ego threat.
A better approach is brainwriting: generate ideas separately, then meet to assess and refine.
Group wisdom begins with individual creativity.
Criticizing is fast and easy. Creating is slow and difficult.
The two hours you spent on a book or movie took someone two years to produce.
Anyone can tear down someone else's work. The true test of insight is whether you can help them improve it or build something of your own.
Ending this π§΅ with the 50th scientist announced today π
Manu Prakash, #Foldscope inventor!
"I get so much joy out of sharing the tools we invent with people to make their own discoveries.. science doesnβt move one paper at a time; it moves one inspired person at a time"

I mostly see the protein sculptures I build in the lighting of my workshop. Itβs fairly static and dull lighting. When they are close to being finished, I bring them into the house and enjoy watching how they change under different natural lighting throughout the day. They are so much more dynamic!
On the Night Science Podcast we ask: do you have a method for coming up with good ideas?, and, how do you distinguish great ideas that you would like to work on from those that are less promising?
The 1st 10 episodes are now on Youtube!

Over 100 postdocs are registered for tomorrow's Postdoc Night Science Boston session! I can't wait to help other places get their own club started.
Excellent mentor in a great environment
Thank you for making this!!
