Great story: "Structural biology is an inherently visual science. As a sighted person, J.H.-P. didn’t give this fact much thought, until a blind student joined her team."

@SaurjaDasGupta I'm curious, what false hoods have you found in the examples of how to use indigenous knowledge in science education? Do you have examples or is your argument based on what you imagine indigenous knowledge to be?

[Christina Roman @CR_FabEngineer]

Great stuff! Thanks for posting the video.

After reflecting on my graduate school experience, I was inspired to write this Op-Ed piece on how academia can retain and support underrepresented students in graduate school @insidehighered.
