@melanie
Thanks.
#Texas isn't known for good government, and Texas is where my parents moved a few years ago.
And then there is the aggressively incompetent medical my mother reduced in 2 Texas hospitals
Finally getting good care in #UTSouthwestern
Filing grievances, and also checking government
Maybe @TexasObserver is interested in covering story about involuntary commitment of senior due to #UTI and #Parkinsons

#introduction

I'm a Software Engineer at @HHMI 's #Janelia Research Campus in Scientific Computing. I work on software related to microscopy where I mostly use #JuliaLang, #Java, and #Python. I'm interested in Open Science, Open Data, and Open Source Software.

I was formerly a postdoc in Cell Biology at #Northwestern and #UTSouthwestern and a graduate student in Systems Biology and Biophysics at #UTSW and #UCSD. I concentrated in Biological Chemistry and Mathematics at #UChicago.

My latest for #UTSouthwestern:

Vaginal #progesterone, a hormone treatment considered the standard of care for preventing #preterm birth in at-risk pregnant women, may not be effective, according to #UTSW research published in #JAMANetworkOpen. The findings come just as the #FDA is likely to pull #Makena progsterone injections from the market, leaving few options for women and underscoring the need for more research in the area.
