  1. Winni 🤍 There’s no sleeping with a broken heart. We miss you beyond measure, and the silence in the house is unbearable. The realization that comes with loss is how much we assume we have more time—more time together, more time to love. You were there through every chapter: building our life and home, each transition, every heartbreak, every sleepless night, each pregnancy and every loss🪽, every feeding and every first step. You were there to comfort us through our deepest fears and greatest milestones. You welcomed us home from the hospital, whether it was from a loss or bringing a baby home. You completed our family ♾️ How can I ever thank you? You put my heart at ease during the hardest times and prayed with me to get through. You always knew. 🙏🏼 Thank you for all the kisses, snuggles, beach cruises, family dinners, travels, boat rides, companionship, support, laughter, walks, sunrises, sunsets, moonlit nights, and unconditional love. We will forever cherish the time we had with you. Thank you for always guiding us. A lifetime wasn’t enough to love you 🤍

  3. Every year, millions and millions of butterflies make the ~3,000 mile journey south to Mexico to overwinter in the high elevation oyamel fir forests of Central Mexico. I can’t put into words how magical it was to see this phenomenon in person - it was so overwhelming in the best way that I became emotional standing there watching them fly around in the sun. This is one of several butterfly sanctuaries in the region where you can responsibly visit and see this happening. You aren’t supposed to reach out and touch the butterflies, but sometimes they’ll land on you for a few seconds and it’s the best feeling ever 😭 If you ever get the chance to go, do it 🥹🦋 It’s an experience I’ll never forget, especially because I got to experience it with my friends: @thenatureeducator @discoverwithalexis @diegonoe @chellyfishhh ❤️

  1. The guy in the back was running outside to tell me that the steps were private property and I needed to take my picture from the sidewalk. *poses & snaps photo anyway* Today, people will get vaccinated with a vaccine that I woke up on Jan. 11th to frantically help design. I remember the day, in February, when mRNA-1273 arrived to our lab at NIAID Vaccine Research Center, and mice awaited in the basement for their injections. At the time, we just had our sights on a phase 1 clinical trial by 100 days, with no idea the virus would spread into a pandemic. 66 days passed from the viral sequence release, and the first human was injected with the vaccine in a phase 1 trial. 9 months later, today, after 76,000,000 COVID cases globally... people in the US will receive the vaccine under emergency use authorization. Lives are about to be saved. Hospitals will become less overwhelmed. Normal times will slowly begin again. And, I might rent out these steps and throw a party. @jeezy on the entertainment. *cues “Put on”*

  2. Today, I got the Moderna COVID vaccine. That’s it. That’s the caption. Mostly because everything I type makes me cry snotty-nosed tears, and I can’t find the right words. Just... Grateful. Happy. Hopeful. (Ok, that’s it... that’s the caption.)

  3. Casually telling the president the story of how the vaccine was invented. 10 years of work... starting with @bebop1979’s respiratory syncytial virus vaccine discovery, which led to us making a really good MERS coronavirus vaccine, which finally led to... “A weekend” when we designed the COVID-19 vaccine.

  2. A “woman’s intuition” is a real thing that modern neuroscience is only beginning to understand and measure! Here are some key neurological factors that contribute to female intuition: 🧠 Larger Mirror Neuron System: With more active anterior cingulate cortex and superior temporal sulcus areas, women can more accurately interpret nonverbal cues, better anticipate the needs of others, and navigate complex social dynamics. 🧠 Higher Inter-Hemispheric Connectivity: Enhanced communication between the brain’s hemispheres allows for more integrated and holistic processing of information, contributing to a nuanced understanding of complex situations. 🧠 More Active Anterior Cingulate Cortex: Crucial for error detection and judgment, enabling women to make quicker and more accurate assessments in various situations. 🧠 Stronger System 1 Thinking: Often referred to as the “gut feeling” mode of thought, which is fast, automatic, and relies on heuristics and pattern recognition. 🧠 Enhanced Emotional Processing: Higher gray matter volume in the anterior cingulate gyrus, insula, and hippocampus underlie women’s heightened emotional awareness, empathy, and interoception—awareness of internal bodily sensations. These brain regions play critical roles in emotional regulation, processing, and memory, contributing to enhanced emotional and empathetic responses. Stay tuned for more fascinating female neuropsychophysiology facts and tag your friends who need this info! #WomensIntuition #Empathy #EmotionalIntelligence #Intuition #femalebrain #femalescience #womenshealth #neuroscience #neurophysiology #neuropsychophysiology #neuronerd #neuropsychology #herscience #herbiorhythm

  3. Imagine if your brain fundamentally changed every week. For women, this isn’t science fiction—it’s reality! Because estrogen and progesterone are powerful neurochemicals that significantly change female brain physiology, mood, and cognition as they ebb and flow throughout the month. That’s right… four different brains, four different realities—every👏 single 👏month👏! Here’s a simplified overview: 🧠 Menstrual Brain: Lowest E/P, lower metabolic conversion of brain fuel, less activity excitatory/mood boosting neurotransmitters, more sensitive to stress, more introspective/intuitive cognitive state. 🧠 Follicular Brain: High E, higher metabolism, up-regulate serotonin/dopamine/epi/norepi/glutamate neurotransmitter activity, better focus and mental energy, enhanced EQ. 🧠 Ovulatory Brain: Peak E, peak energy/focus, peak mood, peak emotional intelligence, enhanced communication skills, more social cognitive state. 🧠 Luteal Brain: Low E/high P, up-regulate GABA, neuro-plasticity, neurogenesis, microglial activation, enhanced IQ and memory consolidation. This monthly brain cycle affects every aspect of a woman’s life, yet it remains largely ignored by mainstream medicine. Ignoring this fact means misunderstanding half of humanity’s mental health and cognitive potential. To learn more about the female brain and all of its amazing intricacies, check out HerBiorhythm.com and hop on the waitlist for our next female neuropsychophysiology certification training 💜 And please tag your friends who need this info! 🙏 #Womensmentalhealth #menstrualcycle #neurodiversity #femalebrain #femalescience #womenshealth #neuroscience #neurophysiology #neuropsychophysiology #neuronerd #neuropsychology #herscience #herbiorhythm

  1. We have 30 new mutants after a successful micro injection of zebrafish embryos! I restored their ability to produce pigmentation and therefore the fish with the black spots are successful mutants! These fish are now 5 days old and have begun eating! Stay tuned to watch them grow! 🐟🧬 #stem #womeninstem #womeninscience #biology #fish #mutation #mutant

  2. Let’s genetically modify zebrafish 🧬🐟 By utilizing newly fertilized zebrafish embryos, we can inject pieces of DNA that integrate into the zebrafish genome with the help of Tol-2 mRNA. As these fish develop, they begin to express proteins based on the genetic instructions we’ve introduced! In this case, the zebrafish line we’re working with is genetically predisposed to developing melanoma, a severe form of skin cancer. By testing different genetic modifications to the ICER protein, we aim to discover which variations can suppress or slow melanoma progression while also uncovering the molecular mechanisms that make this cancer so challenging to treat in humans. - Wearing Lab coat @lab_coat_nerds Outfit @iamgia - - #mutant #biology #stem #science #womeninscience #womeninstem #fish #zebrafish #lablife #geneticengineering #melanomaresearch #cancerbiology #scienceeducation

  3. Sometimes it takes a harsh wake-up call to start truly listening to your body. I’ve been so focused on being the smartest and fittest version of myself that I lost sight of what really matters. Instead of working out to build strength, I was doing it for appearance. I’d spend long hours at school pushing myself to be the best, but I neglected to fuel my body properly. When I found out my foot was broken, I didn’t cry over the diagnosis—I cried because I had put class and work ahead of my health. If I hadn’t been forced to go to the hospital, I would’ve just kept going. As I head into the new year, I want to focus on taking better care of myself—not to be the best, but to give my body the love and attention it deserves. #womeninstem #recovery

  1. If your definition of “healthy” doesn’t include making sure people can eat at all, maybe it’s time to start there. Millions of families are about to lose access to food with the halting of SNAP — and meanwhile, the wellness world is still yelling about seed oils and sugar. Nutrition isn’t about purity, perfection, shame or scare tactics — it’s about access and enoughness. We can choose a version of health that’s bigger than fear — one grounded in justice, empathy, and care. (PS: a post for another day, but this type of food scarcity will have a lasting impact on eating disorders, this is all deeply connected) #antidiet #foodjustice #nutrition #eatingdisorderrecovery #bodyliberation

  2. I know the world won’t tell you this. Not now. Not yet. Because there is so much for them to gain by us all believing that our body is our life’s purpose, our offering, our worth. But life is so much bigger than that. It’s in the small moments, the everyday glimmers, the comforts that ease us. The hard yes’s and the important no’s. Just wanted to put a random list out into the universe today. And most of all, I want to know what would be on your list. Can you share a few with us in the comments?

  1. Exploring the world of hammerhead sharks with a focus on three elusive species: the Winghead, Scoophead, and Smalleye hammerhead. 🦈🌍 The rare Winghead shark (Eusphyra blochii) showcases a distinctively elongated cephalofoil resembling wings, enabling exceptional maneuverability in its preferred coastal environment of the Indo-Pacifc. Due to their elusive behavior, little is known about the life of this shark. The Scoophead hammerhead (Sphyrna media) boasts an angled, shovel-like head, which is uses to sift through sandy or muddy bottoms, in search of small benthic crustaceans and other bottom-dwelling critters. The Smalleye hammerhead (Sphyrna tudes) has a noticeably slender body and disproportionately small eyes. This species is predominately found in the deep waters along the Western coast of Africa. If you enjoy these illustrations, keep an eye out for three new scientific posters that will be available this Thursday on @canvasofthewild ! Thank you for appreciating #sharks as much as we do. 💙🦈 Illustrations by @kellyofthewild Created for @canvasofthewild . . #shark #sharklove #sharklover #sharkart #sharkresearch #sharkconservation #sharkdive #marinebio #marinebiology #sciart #scientificart #scientficillustration #oceanlove #oceanlover #oceanart #oceanconservation #hammerhead #hammerheadshark

  2. Here are the three species of thresher shark found in our ocean. The pelagic (Alopias pelagicus), bigeye (Alopias superciliosus), and common (Alopias vulpinus). All threshers have an elongated upper tailfin, called a caudal fin lobe, that is used as a whip to stun unsuspecting fish or squid for an easy dinner. Before striking, they will sometimes swim in circles around a school of prey using their unique tailfin to condense the group for an easier target. When ready, the thresher slings the tail tip over its head like a trebuchet, knocking prey out with an average speed of 30 mph (48km).

  3. Meet three giants of the ocean: the basking shark, whale shark, and megamouth shark. 💙🦈 Did you know the whale shark is the largest fish in the sea? It can grow up to 40 feet long, followed by the basking shark and then the megamouth shark in length. These three titans may seem intimidating, but they are rather slow, and have a strict diet of microscopic plankton. The Megamouth was only discovered in 1976, and earned its name from that distinctly wide mouth which is used to filter feed on the plankton. The basking shark is a bit more swift than its fellow giants, and has even been known to breach out of the water in order to get clinging parasites off! Despite their impressive size, these gentle giants face numerous threats, including accidental capture in fishing gear, plastic pollution, and shark finning.

  1. If you ever post about exercise in pregnancy, you know what’s coming next... comments. Lots and lots of comments. And many of those comments seem to be from men wearing sunglasses in their profile photos. We want to cut through the opinions to give you some facts. Exercise in pregnancy can be safe and healthy, but everyone has different experiences. Sometimes exercise can mean getting after it on an assault bike, while at other times the hardest workout that you’ve ever done might be walking up the stairs. Stairs are—and this is a science fact—impossible. For those seeking research-based insights rather than TikTok trends, it’s the launch day of @thehuzzahhub, a community created by @drmeganroche and @megandmountain for fun health and performance research breakdowns tailored for female endurance athletes. In the meantime, exercise in pregnancy (even above 140 heart rate) can be safe and fun. Be sure to listen to your doctor/care team about what is best for you, while ignoring the men in sunglasses with strong opinions about your body. Always be sure to hydrate, fuel, and keep cool. Every pregnancy journey is a unique adventure—some people will be able to exercise and others won’t. Whatever your adventure holds, you’re still a boss athlete when you have to change your approach to accommodate your newfound bump swag. So get after it (if wanted)! Just remember: creating life is a 24/7 workout, so cut yourself lots of slack too.

  2. 15:12:30 🧡 11 days ago, there was zero chance I was going to race Leadville. I was still processing my very public failure at Western States. I just wasn’t ready. @drmeganroche disagreed. She told me that I was not only ready to race…I was ready to chase history again. As soon as she convinced me to go from a “hard no” to a “soft maybe,” she said that she couldn’t sleep from excitement. How cool is that? She believed in me so much that it impacted her REM cycles. That was the push I needed to go for it. Leadville 2025 was just going to be about sharing as much love as I possibly could, while also totally obliterating myself. I didn’t make a spreadsheet. I just shared last year’s, and said to add 30-60 minutes. I genuinely didn’t think a record was remotely possible. Love goes a long way. Megan paced me the last 23 miles, my partner in obliteration. As we flowed at mile 95, I got emotional. “You saw this is me when I couldn’t see it in myself.” She responded, “I’m so proud of you” for the 800th time. Implied: TAKE A GEL AND GO FASTER. @run.doctor paced the 15 miles before that, fresh off his course record at the Ouray 100. I don’t have any videos of us kissing, but I promise that I wanted to when he dumped ice water on my head at mile 70. Mom, Dad, Leo, and Ollie rounded out the crew, bringing the belief, yogurt pouches, and trucks. Ollie’s middle name is “Hope” after Hope Pass, the crux of the race. Leadville magic is real. I’m not sure where this came from. But then I think back to mile 57, descending off of Hope Pass. Hundreds of racers stopped on the out-and-back course… and they said they loved me. I screamed it back: I LOVE YOU ❤️ Thank you, for everything. P.S. Failure is cool 😎

  3. What does the Pain Cave look like? It looks like Powerline Climb at mile 80 of Leadville, with pitches over 20% grade at nearly 11,000 feet altitude. What does it sound like? For me, it sounds like @drmeganroche saying “I am so proud of you” over and over. Before last year, every Leadville record attempt was scuttled around Powerline. It’s just so hard to run that high for that long, and the GOATs of the past are the GOATs for a reason (even if they didn’t have our advantages of high carb, bicarb, and plated shoes). In 2024, I barely survived the climb, almost passing out at the top. In 2025, though, I had a not-so-secret secret: Megan is the best coach in the world. She started pacing me at mile 77, and I went silent. I knew the Pain Cave was coming. It’s dark. It’s scary. It’s where I failed so emphatically at Western States. Megan’s voice filled the silence. “I’m so proud of you.” “I love you.” “We’re making history.” “I”m just talking, don’t respond.” I went stealth mode before the race, only telling a few loved ones that I was doing it. My goal was to absolutely obliterate myself, and to share love while doing it. Or, as Megan told me before the start line: “time to redecorate the Pain Cave.” So what does the Pain Cave feel like? The easiest way to describe it is a deep part of your brain screams STOP STOP STOP, a signal from billions of years of evolution. It feels more reptile than human. Megan countered that screaming with love. She bedazzled the the Pain Cave. We put 7+ minutes on my 2024 ghost in the final 23 miles (and infinity minutes on my Western States ghost, who is still panicking somewhere outside Foresthill). 100 milers will always be a trip into the Pain Cave. Megan helped me rediscover that the blood and tears that inevitably splatter all over the walls can be used to paint a big, bright heart ❤️ Coach Vince Lombardi famously said that “Winning isn’t everything. It’s the only thing.” Utter BS. I have the best coach in the world, and she taught me the truth: “Love isn’t everything. It’s the only thing.” ♥️💜💙🧡 Video by brilliant @codybare_ 🔥
