Getzler Lab at KenyonCollege<p>I heard peals of laughter spilling out of the lab Friday afternoon. The students were really enjoying getting soap bubbles to fill with mist from subliming dry ice, left over from the -78 bath for the Swern. I love that they are already having so much fun together. That’s already a huge win for me as a mentor. <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/proflife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>proflife</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/PUI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PUI</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/chemistry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chemistry</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/research" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>research</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/lablife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lablife</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/SummerScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SummerScience</span></a></p>

Sam Levine<p>The problem with refilling a water jacketed incubator is not having any idea how full it is while you're filling. Maybe it needs 5 minutes! Maybe it needs 30!

I'm reducing the collection from ~8000 to the most essential ~600 for saving.
