Congrats to current HMS Black Postdoctoral Association Chair, and postdoc extraordinaire, Abby Cheruiyot, PhD on this major accomplishment!! 👏🏾 We applaud you for not only being an outstanding scientist but for also uplifting others along the way.

A poignant perspective shared by our National Black Postdoctoral Association (NBPA) Vice Chair Heather K. Beasley, PhD, MS!! ❤️🔥 “As you go into faculty, the fewer you see of women who identify as being Black, like I do. That can be a hindrance in a lot of ways, because being the first of anything comes with its own barriers.”
