I’m a seafloor kind of girl, but the water column is pretty fab too. Check out this Gonatus onyx squid we saw - those are eggs in its arms! They will carry those (thousands?) of eggs for a few months. Amazing footage via @SchmidtOcean and our teams excellent timing. #octoodyssey

I have a job that challenges me. From going to the seafloor to thinking about a single microbe to navigating politics of the high seas. BUT raising my kids is the most challenging thing I have ever done & probably ever will do. Kudos to every parent out there. #parentingishard

Jan @amend_lab and I have definitely aged running @deepbiosphere but we still like each other. Last night we honored Katrina Edwards leadership in getting this program off the ground & celebrated all we have been able to accomplish in her vision. Can I retire now? #nsffunded

After a 2-yr delay, it is now T-minus 3 months before we head to sea, thus the packing gauntlet of Watson @WHOI has begun! #protatax #deepsea #ocean #explore #microbes #viruses

I am decidedly NOT ready but since there isn’t really a “how to chat with Hollywood directors, actors, & comedians” course as part of a standard science PhD, I’m winging it! #watchoutnyc

@aaronhoyland For 5 years during my PhD, we would all giggle at the way a faculty member pronounced PNAS in meetings. We are all really just 9 year olds.

My 8 year old insisted I wear this wig to match her purple one and while I remain uncertain of exactly what character I am, I’m digging it. #bluehairdontcare #oceanhair #halloweencostume #HappyHalloween

My youngest is home with COVID. Feels safer having her home than at school. Apparently guns & fetuses are more important to protect than the lives of children & women. I’ve been outraged & heartbroken for years. Last night I cried. The losses are too much. We all deserve better.

Closed out the week with a visit to the submarine #Alvin @WHOI - our tour guide was former #communitycollege student turned pilot-in-training Nick! Wonderful way to inspire this years 6 CC-CREW students & the rest of the lab was pretty impressed too. #ocean #deepsea #explore
