Finally did the thing and got that PhD 🥺🥳 🙏🏽 So grateful for my PI, amazing support system in lab, and my family!!! 💗

Check out our latest paper describing the neuro-immune signatures in distinct pain states. I’m very proud to have had the opportunity to contribute to this outstanding research and an invaluable resource for the pain community! nature.com/articles/s4159…

Guess who made it to the cover of Nature Immunology 🙋🏽‍♀️✨🥺

Our latest paper details part of our unbiased, high-throughput screening efforts to uncover neuroprotective compounds against chemotherapy-induced degeneration on motor and sensory neurons. 4/1902 compounds worked across both neuronal subtypes. PhRMA link.springer.com/article/10.100…
