I’m Trying To Learn How To Paint So I Can Make My Own Website Banners And Panel Icon Things.

Thank you so much for running @peroxide-foam! I love your take on labcore so much. It's refreshingly clean and crisp, perfect for those who want to be morally-ambiguous scientists who want to be more subtle about it or just don't like things that glow green. Props!

I should be the one saying thanks to you, Anonymous! I'm really glad to know someone's got similar sentiments about how science feels to them too.

Initially, I got into making 'clean' labcore moodboards as a way to drown the insecurities I had about my own laboratory by saying that it's okay if your workspaces are sterile and boring because there can be a massive sense of comfort in being able to focus on your experiments in a calm, non-overwhelming environment!

Btw, your message inspired me to collect even more. Thanks beyond kindly :)

May you all reach a point in your career where you can steal a chart off the internet and only draw it halfway then say almost nothing important about it and file it as an “important research note” for later use in a presentation

Thyroid function panel (data stolen from my diagnostics ref) with the added bonus of some structures I’ll probably regret not being able to recognize without a guide

Catch me always apologizing for using technical words even when they’re needed because I used to be *that kid* at the doctor’s office

Quick introduction

I share lab notes and doodles relating to medical biochemistry. Hopefully you can learn something new while passing through my page!

⭐ Please don’t use my posts for medical advice. I'm a scientist, not a physician (If I happen to get something wrong or forget a fact, let me know and I'll have it fixed right away)

⭐ I don't tolerate exclusionists, gatekeepers, performative ethicists, or charlatans

⭐ My drawings aren't meant to be taken seriously, I'm doing this for fun

⭐ I have a moodboard page, and it's @peroxide-foam if you're interested in some crispy cleancore and labcore

Nothing quite like doubting your own legitimacy as a researcher because of one brightly coloured noodle.

I know absolutely nothing about biochemistry but your blog gives off the Best of vibes and I hope you find yourself a very cool rock tomorrow.

Thank you kindly, Anonymous! I'm sorry I hadn't seen this sooner, but I will be on the lookout for collectible Earth formations in the future :)

This is the most simplified I could make it... Here’s a histology “slide” of a human adrenal gland for y’all who “don’t do cells.” (Placement may be a bit inaccurate, cause I stole this from a borrowed notebook.)

Fun fact: I once had someone try to argue with me that the adrenal gland is a “kidney warmer” that does not actually produce hormones, because “it doesn’t look like a real organ.”

Guess what? Mitochondrial disorder causing mutations of human twinkle helicase are now able to be mapped with the first 3D model made by researchers at the National Institute of Health! Here's my rendition of the heptamer!
