New B3 Buzz Series: Brains & Bruises

Liz’s Lab is excited to announce a new blog post series, “Brains and Bruises”. By now, Dr. Liz is known for her work as a neuroscientist studying how B cells control the response to stress as well as her commitment to trainee development and neuroscience education in the community. But few people realize that Dr. Liz leads a bit of a double life, getting sweaty, wearing panties on her head, hitting her friends, and earning some bruises as a roller derby diva. In this series, Dr. Liz or should we say, Sara Tonin, will relay the stories of her roller derby and research journeys, sharing tips, tricks, and pearls of hard- and sometimes painfully-earned wisdom about how to be a badass in the lab and on the track. So stay tuned for posts from Sara Tonin encouraging you to “Get Low”, “Fall Small”, “Practice Jamnesia”, and more on as you navigate your path to scientific success and mental wellbeing. So lace up your skates, don your booty shorts, strap on your knee pads, secure your helmet, and stay track aware for the upcoming Brains & Bruises posts. Until then, stay curious.
