Great mentors matter! Thank you @JillWeather for a wonderful learning experience this year.

What does a mask do? Blocks respiratory droplets coming from your mouth and throat. Two simple demos: First, I sneezed, sang, talked & coughed toward an agar culture plate with or without a mask. Bacteria colonies show where droplets landed. A mask blocks virtually all of them.

Couldn’t have done it without my amazing PI’s support! Thank you!

I’m so blessed to have two wonderful women in science to look up to! Thank you @JillWeather Sashi Ramani for always encouraging me! We’re just getting started! 💃🏾🙌🏾
