At the start of the year, I set a goal to submit 9 first-author manuscripts. My mentor thought it was ambitious, but I'm nearly there! 3 commentaries; 2 research pubs in minor revisions; 1 editorial and 1 lit. review under review; submitting 1 research article next week.

A song I’ve lived by majority of my life! “Sometimes you have to encourage yourself!” Singing with people that completely understand your struggle is so different. This symposium really felt like home and I needed that more than I knew!!! #NBPAinDallas2024

What a week, after having an amazing time during both the NBPA Leadership Symposium and Simons Collab on Plasticity and the Aging Brain Retreat, I had an opportunity to talk to Neil deGrasse Tyson about my research briefly. He's the real deal and was impressed with our #NBPAinDallas2024 turn out 🤩

Many Black scientists fall through the cracks during their postdoc; I almost did myself. Last month, 70+ National Black Postdoctoral Association (NBPA) members met for the 1st time to strengthen our community.🙏🏾RT to help us reach new members/sponsors so we can continue to grow no matter the political climate
