Their pork chop, popcorn chicken, and braised pork are top-notch and their boba is one of the best I have ever tasted - so good that half of it went to my stomach before I took a picture. 🧡2/2.

Very few scientific societies would offer new investigators such opportunities to take on a leadership role. I am very grateful for the experience and mentorship I got from both societies at the early stage of my career. 🧡2/4.
