Feminism. Science. Fandom.

I'm a postdoc working on IBD. I completed my PhD in gonorrhea-ology (no really, ask me anything) ii 2014. I have backgrounds in chemistry and pharmaceutics. I have interests in promoting women in science and raising awareness about mental illnesses. My fandoms: Star Trek, Orphan Black, The X-Files, Buffy/Angel, Firefly/Serenity, Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, Battlestar Galactica/Caprica, Babylon 5, The West Wing, Parks and Rec.

[squishypolymers]

Nice! I have never even attempted cleans or jerks lmao

[femscinerd]

cleans are probably my favorite movement.

i have not attempted one with a human person, though. hypothesize this would go poorly.

fyi, www.myfreetaxes.com is a 100% legit website to help anyone who makes less than $66k/year as an individual file their taxes, including state, for free. this is especially helpful to anyone on 1099 income (looking at some of you grad student/post doc followers) that tax filing software tends to charge for.
