I asked our Pathology team what went well for them last week, and here are a few of their thoughts:
✅ Congratulations to Toni & Michelle who successfully submitted their completed poster for the 2024 National Society for Histotechnology Convention!
✅ Mel, one of our Histology Team members, turned 24 this past week!
✅ Our histology team has been working on some method development involving resin embedding of teeth, and things are progressing really well.
✅ Meat, our necropsy supervisor convinced Pavel, our histology supervisor, to cut off his man bun!
✅ Football started up again this week!

WHY AM I SHARING THIS?
I work in a fast-paced research environment, in which there’s a never-ending conveyer belt of work, with long days, tight deadlines, and unplanned extra stuff that throws a spanner into the works literally every day. I bet most of you can relate to much of all of this. It takes a dedicated team with their eye on the mission to come together and do their best to win the week. I’m privileged to be part of one such team.
Every weekend, I like to reflect on the wins we had in our department during the past week. It’s easy to focus on the frustrations, the curveballs, or what you didn’t quite check off the To Do list. So I find that a little positive reframing is not just a good reminder of what went well, but also sets me up for a positive start to the new week.
I try to remember to share some of these wins here, because it makes them seem more real.
It's incredible how you're exploring life's deeper meanings! 🌟 As Steve Jobs once beautifully said, Stay hungry, stay foolish-. Keep questioning and embracing the beautiful mystery that life is. 💫✨
