Sailplane Harpy OC. Meet Viee, a lightweight, non powered harpycraft. Harpycraft are flying humanoid creatures that resemble different types of airplanes! I've had this idea for a while, but I'm only just now good enough artistically to pull it off. I've almost never seen any good anthropomorphized aircraft, and I'd like to start a series exploring the idea. I've got the start of some lore written up too, so go ahead and leave me questions or asks if you're curious about these critters! Any ideas for other planes I should try out?

I got a project due Friday in my biotech class and its really throwing me for a turn right now

Chromosomes at the “G1 checkpoint” really be like: “To divide or not to divide.”

Hey can anyone understand/ read my handwriting? It’s for my biotech report and I’m not sure in my profs will be able to understand it.

Bio-monitoring with plants!

The past few weeks have been absolutely insane; although stressful due to long hours in the lab and balancing a million things, I can't recall a time I've learned more in such a short period. There is of course still SO much I don't know within my field, but it's satisfying to feel myself becoming more knowledgeable by the day.

Towards the end of last semester, I spent some time reflecting on how my first year was going and considering how to really develop as a researcher. The gap between a first and second year PhD student is huge, in my opinion--since I switched fields from undergrad, it's probably even more true in my case. I did learn a lot last semester, but I was still settling into a new environment and program. There is a lot to get adjusted to in this lab; it's huge, a bit chaotic, and used by multiple groups.

I am finally feeling more confident and independent, so I think this is the time to really grind in order to be where I want to be going into my second year. In addition to ramping up lab work, I've been trying to read way more. For each article I read, I also make a slide in an ongoing PowerPoint that summarizes key findings and any notes or questions I have. This isn't so much an organizational method (I use Zotero for that) as it is a way to follow interesting threads in current research and develop a habit of active reading.

If anyone has a reading practice that really works for them I'd love to hear about it :)

This gave me a good laugh thank you 💀/pos
