If birthdays were biological processes, then today isn’t just gene expression for the record; it’s chromatin remodeling 💐😮, because Cla is the kind of presence that doesn’t change the code, she changes the whole space where everything gets to shine🧬✨ Like a true Chromatin Architect, she designs the environment where creativity gets to breathe, ideas get to bloom, and people feel safe enough to express their best selves. ‘Ika nga: 𝐼’𝓂 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒶𝓁𝓅𝒽𝒶, 𝐼’𝓂 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓁𝑒𝒶𝒹𝑒𝓇, 𝐼’𝓂 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝑜𝓃𝑒 𝓉𝑜 𝓉𝓇𝓊𝓈𝓉, 🐺🌚 and you embody this so well, Ms. President!

From moodboards that feel like visual epigenetics to journals that map entire emotional genomes, Cla doesn’t just create! She curates meaning purposefully. Every thing she does is intentional, and beyond the aesthetics is a heart that leads with warmth, care, and quiet strength. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙬𝙝𝙤 𝙧𝙚𝙜𝙪𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙗𝙮 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙡, 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙗𝙮 𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨. She truly makes everyone feel seen, heard, and supported through n’ through the fire 🔥 (through the fire??)

So here’s to our core and anchor! ⚓️ Happy Birthday, Cla! 💙 Your GeneSoc family is brighter and more alive because of you. Thank you for shaping the space where all of us get to grow, express, and become a little more ourselves. Keep glowing because you’re the kind of brilliance that sharpens the wonders louder. 🧬🌷

Happy Cla Day! 💙🐺

𝐓𝐔𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐃𝐈𝐆. 𝐌𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐈𝐒𝐀. 𝐌𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐒𝐀𝐌𝐀.

Habang muling nagbubukas ang mga silid-aralan, nananatili ang mga suliraning patuloy na humahadlang sa isang makatao, siyentipiko, at makamasang edukasyon: kulang na pondo, mabigat na gastusin, at sistemang mas inuuna ang pagtitipid kaysa kapakanan ng mga mag-aaral.

Bilang mga estudyanteng patuloy na hinuhubog ng kritikal na pag-iisip at paninindigan, naniniwala ang The UPLB Genetics Society na hindi sapat ang manahimik. Ang agham ay hindi hiwalay sa lipunan, ito ay dapat magsilbi sa bayan. Kasama sa pakikibakang ito ang pag-alala sa pagdukot kay Sis Karla Monge, isang alumna ng GeneSoc, lider-estudyante, at mananaliksik na sapilitang dinukot ng pinagsanib na puwersa ng Philippine National Police (PNP) at ng 59th Infantry Battalion habang nagsasagawa ng pananaliksik hinggil sa mga epekto ng land use conversion sa lalawigan noong Nobyembre 2023. Ang pagtarget sa kaniya ng umiigting na militaristiko at kontra-mamamayang programang kontra-insurhensiya ay isang pagbabanta para sa mga mag-aaral ng pamantasan at lipunan katulad ni Sis Karla, na pawang may adbokasiya sa tunay na reporma sa lupa. Ang ganitong uri ng pananakot ng estado at naghaharing-uri ay siyang banta rin sa ating mga mag-aaral, siyentista, at kabataan sa loob at labas ng pamantasan.

Sa darating na 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐑𝐚𝐠𝐞, ang GeneSoc ay nakikiisa sa hanay ng sangkaestudyantehan kasabay ng pagtindig para sa mga kapwa estudyanteng patuloy na pinatatahimik at inaapi. Sama-sama nating igiit ang karapatan sa de-kalidad, abot-kaya, at inklusibong edukasyon, at kondenahin ang red-tagging at lahat ng anyo ng panunupil sa mga mag-aaral at mamamayan. Ipakita natin na ang kabataan ay hindi lamang tumatanggap ng kaalaman, kundi aktibong tumitindig at lumalaban para sa karapatan, katotohanan, at isang mas makatarungang kinabukasan.

𝑶𝑷𝑬𝑵 𝑺𝑬𝑺𝑨𝑴𝑬! 👐🚪 Here’s a look back at this year’s Genetics Week Open Tambayan where time has paused, genes expressed freely, and snacks underwent questionable but delicious recombination.

As part of 🧬 🧬, the UPLB Genetics Society’s Open Tambayan became everyone’s safe habitat last November 19 where stress went dormant and ATP levels were sharply restored. ❤️⚡

All of this unfolded alongside this year’s theme, 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐬𝐢𝐬: 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑺𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝒐𝒇 𝑳𝒊𝒇𝒆’𝒔 𝑩𝒆𝒈𝒊𝒏𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑩𝒆𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑳𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒖𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝑮𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒔. 🕰️📖✨

Thanks to everyone who dropped by! We appreciate those who stayed longer than planned and let their schedules mutate with us just a little. 🤏🧬 The moment has passed, but the memory? Stably inherited, genes!

𝑴𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒏? 🤔🎲
Don’t worry! Stay tuned by following us at so you don’t get left out of the next big expression led by yours truly. ⏰✨

Hello, world! 💻 Presenting: Nashee! The kind of person who stands out at ease, always calm and confident. Tomboy at heart 👩🏻‍❤️‍👩🏻, effortlessly pretty 😍, and easy to be around 🤗. These genes are calm within and out! 👉🌈

Whether she’s choosing good food or loading into another game, she’s always locked in 🥗🎮. Snacks planned, energy steady, reflexes sharp, then it’s straight to Valorant 🔫 where the aim is clean, the plays are smart, and the clutch moments just happen. Fun, focused, and never doing too much 🔥.

Erm...actually!..☝️🤓...genetically speaking 🧬, Nashee’s built on regulation and expression. She knows when to stay lowkey and when to switch on, like genes responding to the right signals at the right time. Under pressure? No fret! These traits regulate, adapt, and perform well. Focus lang sa goals, G? 😉👾 That sums the fact that personalities aren’t static traits but responsive and always in sync with the environment. That's from our CHE-main Girlie here! 💯🌎

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐍𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐞! 🎂🥳�Your GeneSoc family hopes that today was full of good food, good games, and good vibes only 🎉
