When they came for Black&Brown folks, or #DEI efforts, I heard little commotion. Only with these new NIH directives has the scientific community become concerned with the future of academic institutions. It will not stop here. If you are not rich & conservative, you are at risk.

As this is a delicate political moment, in which words are being weaponized, can we get some of the language right?. DIVERSE is a feature of a group, not a person! A person is what they are. There is no such thing as a diverse hire/employee. Thank you.

Everything is better when you have a community around you and a faculty legend to look up to. Met @NewBlackMan during my first event at Duke, attended his course on Michael Jackson, and here we are celebrating this together!! šŸ™šŸ¾šŸ™šŸ¾.

Inspired by Dr. Rey Tirgar, we started an "Appreciation Box" that we open 1x a month in our lab meeting. It was a great moment to celebrate the #kindness and support in the Silva lab. These are some of the general ones as people took their notes with them! Highly recommend!ā¤ļø

This week, the PhD candidate Cait Seluzicki visited us from @HopkinsMedicine and shared her great research in neuronal response to heat shock!. The lab is busy this semester and we had to keep it together to support our undergrads, like Joy, who presented her summer project! 😊

Had a great time hosting my longtime mentor and role model @thesilvalab for a visit at @ETH this week! It’s such a gift to have mentors that follow you through your career— from teaching me how to do a PCR 12 years ago to explaining to me how lab overhead works today!
