Coffee is great to drink but it also can be a fun relaxing activity with the kids! BTW, I recently heard on a podcast that caffeine is not a diuretic. Is this true? Any #chemists out there that can help with this?

Walked by the lab on my way to grab lunch and just had to snap this candid picture of @Lamanda_East and @CBSreduction This affection appears very normal to @ForzanoJoe 😆 @ChanLabUIUC

I recently connected via @23andMe with a relative I did not know existed. Learning new things about my family history was a lot of fun. Has anyone ever had a similar experience with this?

Imp things are worth the effort! Yesterday was date night w my wife. My day began w a nutrient-rich breakfast, exercise, teaching, office hrs, meetings, emails, writing papers & grants, time with my kids, and playoff 🏀. I was on fire, but today I feel a bit tired. Now what?

In a recent tweet, my advice to students was to be flexible when tired. This increases the likelihood that you accomplish your tasks and still leave the lab feeling victorious! I may not be as productive today but I can still feel accomplished. Be kind to yourself 💪

Who says science can't be cute? Check out these adorable pipette pens that we got from @Eppendorf_Group. Also our smiles 😉. Thanks @profjeffchan and my fellow labmates for keeping me sane during finals week. Oh we got free pizza too, don't mind me dropping it here 🤤

I attended a CHAD seminar from @AHSIllinois by Dr. Bartlo and Prof. Berdychevsky about Ageism. It was fascinating. I have always respected and cared for the elderly. My grandma who recently passed away, lived until 106! 2 msgs: be patient with the elderly & make time for them.
