Happy pride from your friendly neighborhood nonbinary, aroace neuroscientist. Please mark your calendar for Monday night for Society for Neuroscience (SfN)' first ever LGBTQIA2S+ social at #SfN24! Looking forward to creating community and a sense of belonging. Hope to see you there!
This has obviously been a crazy weekend. But some good personal news at the end. I was just awarded the #NIHLRP!! Truly life changing! Thanks to all who helped but especially thanks to #LRPAmbassador Dionna Williams, PhD Lab for telling me about the program when I was a Hopkins Postbacc 🥳
1/2 Honored to share my journey as a first-gen scientist with Vivien Marx🐘📬⛅️ in @NatureMethods! Highlights: • The power of diversity in STEM • How perseverance overcomes doubts • The impact of mentorship & support Let's keep pushing for inclusive science! #DiversityInSTEM
Congratulations Cory! NIH Loan Repayment changes lives and it’s so rewarding to see it benefit your mentees. Very well deserved!!!
Love seeing all the members of Black In Neuro 🧠 community 🥹 In the spirit of #BlackInNeuroRollCall, we are calling on undergraduates in the DMV to come present your research at our FIRST ever Black In Neuro Symposium! #BINW24 Sign up to be a participant: forms.gle/nLVfdcGk2dsoMH…
#BINW24 is here! I'm Dionna, an Associate Professor at Emory Emory Pharmacology & Chemical Biology. We are a neuroHIV lab finding ways to treat the brain more effectively. Best part of my job? My lab! It's a privilege to be surrounded by brilliance and be a part of their journeys. #BlackInNeuroRollCall
I was Vice Chair at the Barriers of the CNS Gordon Conference and recruited using the Black In Neuro 🧠 network. The outcome? We had the most Black and marginalized folks - ever! We can do even better next time. Anyone working on the BBB, CNS flow or related areas? DM me! #BINW24
Don’t wait too long to hire him! With a CV that already rivals junior faculty, a creative and innovative way to approaching neurochemistry, and an amazing work ethic, trust me when I say you won’t want to miss out. Oh and he doesn’t miss with the funding. Bet on Cory J. White, Ph.D.!
Learning I was Autistic 1.5 years ago changed my life and led me on a journey of self acceptance and love. It’s also made me a more compassionate and effective mentor! Listen to learn more about Autism and supporting the neurodivergent folks in your life podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cathe…
It’s finally September✨ Which means in a few short weeks, I’ll be hosting these brilliant #BlackInNeuro Scientists for the first #BlackExcellenceInNeuroScience symposium 🎉 This two-day in-person event is a labor of love 💗 Thrilled to see it come to fruition 😍 University of Minnesota Neuroscience 🧠
