Congrats to Mallory & Carter in my lab who defended their PhDs this spring! #proudPI 🤩 Great to also see former members of the lab both in person and online. I am very grateful to have had such an amazing and supportive team all these years! Excited about their next steps. 🎉
Great to catch up with @dr_mptaylor at Mayo Clinic who gave a seminar on #HSV and #measles that I missed 😭 as I was headed back to MSU for a thesis defense.
On my way to #APSphysics in #DEN lounge. I ask the young man sitting next to me for the WiFi password. It turns out he is flying to #BZN working at #BigSky and grew up in #MN where his dad is a #MayoClinic doctor. Constantly surprised by how small the world is! 💙 See you at APS!
Long trip home from Singapore but good to see old friends and new. @VignuzziLab Pricilla Yang @biofadialnaji. Thank you @tzmatthew for hosting my visit to @idlabs_astar. @ASTARsg is a unique R&D agency doing innovative translational work bridging academia and industry! 🇸🇬 – at Singapore
My soldering skills have been put to use outside of the lab! Fixed up my espresso machine. First I tried changing the solid state relay, but it turned out to be a $4 transformer in the control box. Very excited to be properly caffeinated again #artofelectronics #thatsmeespeesso

Great to see this work with @thechanglab published!
Digital droplet RT‐LAMP increases speed of SARS‐CoV‐2 viral RNA detection, Smart Medicine onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Was great to host my former undergraduate student and recent #NSF GRFP recipient Hannah Szafraniec from #UMN @UMNBME at #MayoClinic yesterday. Hannah talked about her work studying sickle cell rheology using #microfluidic flow imaging of blood in the lab of @davesbiochips.
Excited that our collaboration with the Taylor lab @dr_mptaylor is now published in @ScienceAdvances. We cultured single #neurons on Matrigel #hydrogels created using #droplet #microfluidics and watched infection with herpes #virus (HSV-1). science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…

Coming soon on January 9th! amzn.to/48kK5Di – at Minnesota, USA
Great time at #BMES2023 with @TheKunzeLab and @therealdidipam. High consumption rate of 小龍包dumplings over the past few days. 🥟 – at Seattle, WA
Jamaican fruit bats are pretty cute. There are 1400 bat species in the world, 500 million worldwide that harbor all the #viruses! Thanks for the seminar @TSchountz aka Batman who studies a #bat colony of 600 with more to come in new bat vivarium aka Batcave @ColoradoStateU 2024🦇 – at Minnesota, USA
New work in collaboration @LewCo406 @ronjune2 in Advanced Biology. Single primary human chondrocytes are cultured in alginate microgels, a robust PCM forms around each cell, single cell micromechanics show cells reach elastic moduli close to native PCM 🦴 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Great job Jonathan Louis from #UIUC #Bioengineering presenting at the #MayoClinic Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) poster session. Impressive poster session with 110 posters. Thanks to grad students Mallory and Carter from #MontanaState for showing Jon the ropes!💙 – at Minnesota, USA
Congratulations to Dr. Humberto Sanchez @HumbertoSSanch1 who successfully defended his #PhD today! Caught his slide on device modeling: *the following slides contains mathematics some viewers may find disturbing. #Math=disturbing? Never! #proudPI #ChE #Engineering #PhDone🤓🧮 – at Bozeman, MT
Great to be at the Montana Biofolm Meeting with my lab and @wilkinglab, catching up with Center for Biofilm Engineering folk. Fantastic and fun workshop day on Engineering Living Materials organized by @HeveranChelsea @GerlachLab! #biofilm #bacteria #ELM #MBM23 @BiofilmFirst ⛰️☀️ – at Bozeman, MT
And congrats to Travis Lindsay, M.S. who did not walk but great to see him in the lab! #CatGrad23 🎉🎈🥳 – at Bozeman, MT
Congrats 2023 #MontanaState graduates and especially Dr. Shawna Pratt, Ph.D.! Can’t beat the front row seats to the show. #GoCatsGo – at Bozeman, MT
Congratulations to Dr. Shawna Pratt, who made this fabulous Lululemon track suit that I promised I would wear for her graduation. It was wonderful to have the lab together again to celebrate. Will miss all the graduating students! Thankful for this supportive, close-knit team! 🥳 – at Bozeman, MT
It's thesis defense week! Congrats to Dr. Jake Fredrikson & Travis Lindsay M.S.! Tomorrow at 1 pm is soon-to-be Dr. Shawna Pratt in Procrastinator Theatre for #MontanaState folk. So nice to have everyone in the lab together and to be back in #Bozeman #Montana #Engineering 🌈🏔️☀️ – at Bozeman, MT
