I can't believe three years has gone by already with Genetics Society of America! I've had such an amazing time being part of ECLP and helping raise awareness of accessibility concerns! Thank you to GSA and I can't wait to see the continued success of the Accessibility Subcommittee and ECLP!

The next Einstein, Curie, or Salk might be sitting in a lab right now, wondering if they should quit. Don’t let them. Fund science like the future depends on it…because actually it does.

I’m excited to share that my first scientific research article has been published: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac… Journal of Proteome Research If someone had told my younger self that I would one day contribute to math-heavy scientific research, I would have found it hard to believe!

before you go to bed tonight remember that there is no need to be stressed. you are okay. you have time to slow down and calculate your next steps. your whole life is still ahead of you. you got this.

It's a sad day for many young scientists around the country. NIH just sent termination notices for MARC, GRISE, PREP, IMSD, IRACDA, and BRIGES.

I wouldn't be where I'm today if it weren't for NIH programs like ENDURE, PREP and IMSD. Their funding gave me the backing and experience to win a Gilliam Fellowship. Eliminating them for no reason is unjustified. I'll do what I can to continue lifting others UP in my community.

This blazing, writhing orb is the cytoskeleton of a cell. Andy Moore of HHMI | Janelia’s Research Campus created this video of what appears to be a blazing inferno to visualize the dynamic nature of actin filaments in a HeLa cell. Observing the dynamic nature of actin filaments

from the beginning of my scientific career in 2015, the one entity that has made the biggest difference in my journey is HHMI. they always come through🙌

I had such a powerful experience at BCM SKY Retreat this weekend led by Graham Erwin and met so many amazing people! It was a thought-provoking and reflective weekend with lessons that I will carry with me! What a privilege to partake in such a transformative experience! 🥰

I’m going to be very honest (probably a little too honest) This year has SUCKED. As someone whose career & passions center around DEI and whose students are looking to them for reassurance, it’s been so hard to keep showing up. I try to stay optimistic but…
