Recently, I felt dismissed due to my name. I was meant to be introduced together w a group of other scientists but when the person got to my name said "I can't pronounce that" and moved on introducing everyone else. I felt erased. Please, DON'T preach #Inclusion and then do that.

Congratulations to all UPR alumni for their U.S. National Science Foundation GRFP! #productoUPR #HechoenPR #PuertoRicansInSTEM #almamater
