Thank you to all who voted! So very excited to serve in this capacity

My parents didn't go to college so navigating college apps was on me...I had their support (if not experience), I was smart/driven so I managed but it was hard. Now my son is doing this, seeing how much he benefits from academic, PhD parents is truly wild. The advantage is huge.

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 🥳

Took 1-8y off science for family during your postdoc or faculty position? Contact an NIH-funded lab to see if they will write a reentry with you. Please RT these little-known supplements: nigms.nih.gov/Research/Mecha…

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

Without explanation, post a photo showing what setting up a new lab is like.

Congratulations Cory! NIH Loan Repayment changes lives and it’s so rewarding to see it benefit your mentees. Very well deserved!!!

calling all tenure-track bound folks: come join us for this valuable series! we have some fantastic ppl lined up to share their experiences + advice with you. see quoted thread for more details and register via QR code on the attached flyer. see you soon 🤗

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…

FACS machine is officially up and running! Time to get some cool data!!!

Please apply!!! As a LRP Ambassador I’m very happy to help answer questions you may have about the application process.

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 🧠

Excited to discuss translating CNS barriers! Thank you for the invitation and I’m so looking forward to the outstanding science

Every person who you mentor is a unique individual, and none of them are you. Mentoring isn’t about sharing what you would do, but exploring what’s best for them to do.

Mentorship is so important. Having a mentor who understands and is empathetic about your whole identity (race, disability, sexuality, etc.) is essential to your continued success.
