Women in science ! @JessicaForcillo @JGrandeAllen &ETseng @HeartValveOrg @CircAHA @500womensci @WomenInThoracic @WomenSurgeons @WomenSurgeonsUK @500womensci
Congratulations to the new graduates of the Master of Bioengineering (MBE) program! We are celebrating 33 graduates from December 2022 and May 2023 @Rice_BIOE
Way to go Pioneers!!!!!
Transylvania women’s basketball (@TUWBX) defats Christopher Newport, 57-52, to win the 2023 NCAA Division III Tournament.
First national championship for the Pioneers, who complete a perfect 33-0 season.
Transy led by 13 in the second half, lost the lead and won anyway.
Halloween: adding to the blurry line between technical and biological replicates :) as we just reviewed in my BIOE 511 Research Methods class. A slightly larger sample size may be required to figure this out. Credit: inspired by @KubenaKay and her candy statistics!
To celebrate Mole Day (10/23) at @DebakeyHSHP, my daughter and I made a stuffed animal mole honoring a famous person. Who to pick? Einstein? Curie? Nah! I present our mole version of @CarolynBertozzi. Congrats Carolyn from a fellow glycan scientist. You rock!
Congratulations to my former research intern @stevexuMD on being selected as an Outstanding Young Engineering Alumni Awardee! Way to go! I could have predicted this. I'm a proud mentor 🤩

Congratulations to my colleague @ProfDanPreston for this new project! Fascinating approach to bioinspired robotics.
Our #necrobotics paper is out today in open-access @AdvSciNews Advanced Science! We repurposed biotic material (in this case, a deceased spider) as a #robotic gripper. #materials #engineering onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
ALT Necrobotics article summary: a deceased spider is converted to a robotic gripper in one simple step.

@BMESociety have you thought about what the future of this society should be? Nominations are open for 4 board of director positions and for 1 secretary position. Deadline: Mon June 13! assets.noviams.com/novi-file…. Send you ⁉️ to @JGrandeAllen or Don Graver
Time for Board elections! 🗳️
It’s critical that our members nominate a colleague (or yourself!) committed to growing #BMES as the lead society in #BME. Who do you think would best represent our interests?

Congratulations to the Master of Bioengineering graduates from @RiceEngineering
I am extremely honored to have received an award in honor of my professional service and leadership at Rice and in my field of biomedical engineering. And then I noticed this. Unfortunate typo? Yes. Unintentionally apropos? YES 🫤 it definitely feels like that sometimes.
Congratulations to Tanya for this NSF fellowship! I am so proud! 🤩You rock and so does @BmeUtsa. Thanks to @BUILDingSchUTEP for funding - proud that @RiceUniversity is a long time partner in this impactful educational program, BUILDing SCHOLARS.
my REU student from summer 2021 Tanya Cruz (UT San Antonio) is awarded NSF-GRFP! special thanks to @JGrandeAllen for organizing a fantastic REU program! Wish Tanya a great journey ahead!
My friend and colleague Emmanuel Lansac showing support for Ukraine 🇺🇦 in his talk on reporting standards at the Heart Valve Society meeting. Love this guy.
@ATTHelp, I have spent more than a month trying to get re-approved for an upgrade for my iPhone. BestBuy cancelled my phone order. But before I can order another one I need ATT to restore my upgrade eligibility. Why can you fix this?
Difficult news day & week. Kept myself busy planning today’s lecture on Diversity and Inclusion for my Biomechanics class. I am incensed by the proposal by the Texas Lt Gov to eliminate tenure for public university faculty who teach about systemic racism. 1/
I wrapped up with how sex and racial diversity is hindered in the practice of literature citations (doi.org/10.1101/2020.10.12.3… and doi.org/10.1038/s41593-020-0…), which harms the career path of faculty who are underrepresented in STEM. 4/
To my colleagues, don’t bow down to Dan Patrick’s threats. I chose instead to double down, share the data, and let my students know that diversity, equity, and inclusion matter to me. #BLM
Clearly, this heart beats strong news.rice.edu/news/2022/clea…. Exciting work from my colleague Teyfun Tezduyar in @RiceMECH. Congratulations on this model!
Thank you to the @ucsdbe department and @BrianAguado for a fun visit! I enjoyed connecting with everyone and talking about science, diversity, and baking. Your students rock :)
