#ASBMBLovesPostdocs 2022
National Postdoc Appreciation Week starts Sept. 19. The 麻豆传媒色情片 and 麻豆传媒色情片 Biology participates in this observance, which is led by the National Postdoctoral Association, each year. Below is a list of the activities we have planned.
Thank-you notes on social media
As is our tradition, we'll publicly recognize these hardworking young scientists on our social media channels using the hashtag . We invite lab leaders and members to send one or more of the following to asbmbtoday@asbmb.org:
- A thank-you note of no more than 50 words and a photo. (Please note that your thank-you note may be truncated if necessary. Short sentences work best.)
- A video under one minute of yourself thanking a postdoc. (Professional video footage is not necessary. Feel free to shoot your tribute on your cell phone.)
Daily Twitter coffee breaks
Join us on Twitter () each day at 1:30 p.m. Eastern for a brief chat and you'll have a chance to win a cup of coffee on us. We'll ask a question or two. Use the hashtag in your response to be entered into the drawing for a gift card.
