Busy FIR days at the @mblscience.bsky.social. At the end of last week FIRbees learned how to collect and inject follicles and oocytes and experienced the beautiful diversity of marine reproductive biology strategies.

Last night the FIRbees at the @mblscience.bsky.social did a hands on activity to learn about how the Retinoic Acid wave controls spermatogenesis and how that impacts tubule staging. Such a cool and powerful activity from Beth Snyder- @rnaisthenewdna.bsky.social!

I'm up at the MBL to kick off Section 2 of Frontiers in Reproduction tonight. Missing Mother's Day with my kiddos, but my amazing husband did interviews with them to send me. This one had me in tears. He gets what we do and he's only 11.

Thanks Senator @kim.senate.gov for the science round table at Rutgers. We discussed the importance of NIH funding for R&D, workforce training, & helping patients. Politicizing the NIH threatens our global competitiveness and quest for disease cures. @schindlerlab.bsky.social @matiset.bsky.social

I did something exciting today with my two amazing genetics dept colleagues @schindlerlab.bsky.social and @matiset.bsky.social. We joined a round table discussion on science, innovation and industry with NJ Senator Andy Kim @kim.senate.gov. We have some new strategies to #standupforscience2025! 💪🧪

Close to 600 people for the Trenton Stand Up For Science rally. Great chants, NJ schools out in force, and scientists discovering their inner extrovert. Rush Holt led off, me at end.

Sharing some oocyte spindle love-an image taken by PhD student Phia Maddocks. This beautiful work is supported by our NIH funding. Without this funding, we cannot understand the complexities of fertility genetics. With declining fertility rates, this work is essential to human health.
