My mother dropped out of school because she had me and childcare was not an option. She would’ve been an amazing CEO. The skills I have are ones I learnt from her, this career-in-the-making is not my legacy, it’s hers, I hang in here because her sacrifice matters. I awe her this.

Try kneeling for 8 mins and 46 secs on concrete in 88 degrees in a white coat. We all took our time to show solidarity against systemic racism and policy brutality today. It’s all of our responsibility. #WhiteCoatsForBlackLives The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center @MissSheriMD

I don't know who needs to hear this, but I don't expect my mentees to be enthusiastic, energetic, organized, or focused during this COVID-19 pandemic.

Pelotonia is cancer research funding that saves lives, it’s a community that looks out for its researchers and for me personally has been a huge reason I am able to do what I do! Please consider donating this week (your $50 donation is really a $100!) pelotonia.org/amina.

Yes! Aditi Gurkar and William Mair . Takeaways: it’s all worth it when you love what you do, live by “what’s the worst that can happen”. Avoid being tactic about science, love the question, don’t create one around the career goal. Amina walks away like ..#CSHLAging
