Welcome to Caitlin’s Corner!

Just some humble musings on science, life in the lab, and life in general.

Restaurant👏Review👏III

Along with a little dive into beef types and quality! School has been tough this past semester, tough for students, tough for profs, and tough for TAs. So it was with much, much, pleasure that Joe and I were invited to try Miga Korean BBQ by Kei as a thanks for helping him to TA…

3 Areas of Focus for Improving Online Learning

While we’re probably best friends with Zoom now that the schooling landscape has changed, we may still be strangers to effective online learning.

Today’s restaurant is…
