A big thanks to my PI @guntherwho for being supportive and awesome, @Cornell_BBS PhD program for uniting me with an amazing group of students and faculty, and to the 60 fuzzy worms adorning my lab coat during BBSās first lab coat ceremony!
identifying heterozygous GFP+ worms when the marker is already dim feels like psychological torture

Iām super excited to be joining @HollopeterLab at @Cornell for my PhD! Iāve been hoping to join this lab ever since my interview, and it finally happened! Iām so excited to see what the next chapter has in store for me!
Absolutely honored to have received the @NSF GRFP! Thank you to everyone who helped me along my path to graduate school, and to those who helped me with my proposal!

After dedicating my undergraduate research experience to C. elegans, working in two worm labs, and publishing a few papers, I decided to get a permanent reminder of the start of my science career! I canāt wait for what grad school has in store for me! #AcademicTwitter

Super excited to be first author on my first micropublication! Big thanks to my advisor Diane Shakes @wm_biology, and our collaborators Jordan Ward and Matt Ragle @ward_lab for making us CRISPR knockout lines. 1/2

I canāt believe Iām graduating! Thank you to @wm_biology for an amazing 4 years that Iāll never forget! Most of all, Iād like to thank the thousands of C. elegans that have sacrificed their lives for my research
I'm excited to announce that I'll be attending Cornell for a PhD in Biomedical and Biological Sciences! Applying and interviewing for PhD programs during a pandemic brought a lot of uncertainty, but I'm excited to see where the next 5+ years takes me! Thanks to everyone involved!

New game: see how many times Leonie can walk on my keyboard until it stops working. So far we are down an E key
