#ASB2024 is such a great conference! It’s been great learning cool stuff about muscles from @UvaM3Lab and @MoBLNCSU and catching up with some @WPI_BME /lab alums like Ying Fang!

What a great day on @WPI campus! Our @WPI_BME students all presented their senior projects today. I am proud of my two design teams. This group created a cool outreach demo (involving jumping) that they presented as part of @BiomechanicsDay — with great success.

My lab crew is the best! They indulged the Girl Scout leader in me and went orienteering this weekend. I rank this one of the best team building activities ever (except for the tick I found in my arm this morning)! @WPI_BME

Know how they keep telling you that the more grants you apply for, the more you will get? I know it’s statistically true, but I set a personal record yesterday with 4 rejections in a single day. Going to buy myself some fancy chocolate now…

I’d forgotten what a great meeting the #ORSMSK2023 meeting is. I learned so much that is new to me and met more great people!Plus, it wouldn’t be a good conference without a good hike (and some bonus miles due to a road closure) @ORSsociety @jboerckel and many others

I have the best crew of @WPI_BME and @NSF REU students this summer! And, strawberry picking is possibly the best inclusive lab activity ever! Happy Friday everyone!
