Today, the atmosphere on @NIH campus was even more collaborative than usual! We brought hundreds of scientists, engineers, and clinicians together to foster new connections and create more opportunities for clinically impactful work.

Still reflecting on the incredible “Building Bridges…” event @NIBIBgov! Special thanks to @DrPlattLab and the BETA Center for the opportunity to share my work and explore connections at the NIH! Hopefully this event becomes a mainstay in our community 🙌🏾

Thank you @NIBIBgov and @DrPlattLab for organizing the Building Bridges Across NIH and Engineering Meeting! It was an honor to share my lab’s vision and connect with @nih_nhlbi investigators leading HSCT research in sickle cell. Couldn’t ask for a better first talk as new faculty
