This story is a true elixir during this trying time
We're ramping down our expts and mouse breeding (goal: Wed). I'm hearing a lot of anxiety about ongoing experiments, publications, funding/evaluations, so I want to share how time away from the bench unexpectedly helped me progress scientifically.

A great inspiration to me and countless others will be greatly missed. Thanks Sam for being so approachable and supportive of trainees

Interesting management finding that accords with personal experience. Lab environment >>> PI (tho they clearly are intertwined)
"Here we show that PIs’ laboratory and mentoring activities do not significantly predict students’ skill development trajectories, but the engagement of postdocs and senior graduate students in laboratory interactions do." pnas.org/content/early/2019/…

A great biennial meeting for gliaphiles and their kin. Ideal for networking, wine, and dune sight-seeing. Added bonus: my postdoc supervisor Peter Stys is a keynote. See you there!
