In honor of #piDay2023 I want to give a shout-out to the person that helped me figure out how to apply to college and study mathematics. Michelle Harding was my AP Calculus teacher in high school, the first woman of color I was honored to learn from and watched me get my PhD ❤️

Really excited to have my first post doc preprint out with Dr. Stacey Finley (USC Systems Bio Lab)! We explore the evolution of CD8+ T cell gene regulation underlying T cell exhaustion using a data-driven Boolean model: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The US is the only country where guns are the leading cause of death among children. Bill Lee you can’t pray for the families who lost their children or adults who lost their lives when you are the problem expanding gun access and lessening restrictions. This is on you.

Attended my first LatinXinBME conference today and just looking around the room to see all the beautiful Latinx people was very motivational as we start BMES 2023 today. It was a great time!

I have a question for academics who left for industry: What was your reason for leaving and would you ever go back? #AcademicChat #IndustryChat #CareerTransitions
