I need a lamp.

Im open abt #mentalhealth #sexuality &myself. #depression #anxiety can be overwhelming but #therapy &meds help butnot 100%. At 35 I take 10 meds for #mentalheath #sexualhealth & #chronicpain; it’s a pause not my end. #stopstigma #lgbtinstem @trevorproject.bsky.social @projectsemicolon.bsky.social

Anyone want to donate a 4 degree fridge and -20 degree freezer to my lab please :-( Not having fridge and freezers kinda make doing science difficult... #NewPI #NoStartUp #HELP #Academia #LGBTinSTEM

Five important financial moves for PhD students Students and a financial planner give their advice on budgeting, saving and investing during doctoral studies.

I was making much less as a PhD student & budgeting helped me pay rent, eat, pay my student loans, save, and still go out with friends. I appreciate my parents teaching me the value of a dollar during elementary school.

E. coli-activated cellular circuit restrains intestinal inflammatory microbiota-specific T cells and protects against colitis Kim et al. show that colonization with a single E. coli strain limits microbiota-directed T cell inflammation. Colonization promotes CX3CR1+ APC IL-10 production, restricting colitogenic Th1 cell resp...
