Bercin Cenik
Research assistant professor of biochemistry and molecular genetics at Northwestern. Gene discover, transcription and TurboCas! Just a lady who likes science and unfunny jokes.
- Kid #1 needs to do an experiment for show-and-share. Response after I suggested the volcano experiment and invisible ink: "No, no. Aren't you a scientist? Give me something more complicated." Considering renaming kid as Future Reviewer 2.
- I've been away from social media too long. I did not know about Bluesky until recently, and I also had to ask my technician to explain what a skibidi is.
- Recent developments have made me realize that as someone who does science for a career, I'm terribad at self-promotion, so I'm starting this account to hopefully remedy that. A thread!
