Happy Monday! I know everyone in the science community is super passionate about science. But it’s equally important to step away from your work and take a breather too! #Selfcareforscientists

Okay #ABRCMS2019 you have been conquered (at least the presentation portion anyway)!! I thought it was going to be nerve wracking, but the judges were actually super nice and loved hearing about my research! Feels good to be valued in the #STEM community! #ThinkBigDiversity

Attended Dr. Celia Goulding’s session, “Utilizing Structural Biology to Combat Disease” and I totally geek out over structural biology! By the way, come visit my poster (D-216) tomorrow on “Structural Characterization of Bacterial Tir proteins”! #ThinkBigDiversity @Renetta_Tull

A2: I really hope to just grow out and my shell, stop “othering” myself /and become one step closer to fully accepting my identity as a scientist by making connections with other scientists!! @USM_LSAMP @Renetta_Tull #ThinkBigDiversity #ABRCMS2019

[U System of MD LSAMP @USM_LSAMP]

Just attended a great session on presentation techniques given by the fabulous Dr. Shelley Payne! She was such a pleasure and has given me much to think about when presenting my poster in two days! You can only get that type of experience at #ABRCMS2019 ! @umbc_lsamp @USM_LSAMP

A1: There are three things I want to evoke through my personal use of social media! “Pride” (in being a black woman in STEM), “Engagement” (with other black STEM professionals), and a “Passion” (for all things scientific!) 😄 @umbc_lsamp @curiouspeterdee @Tracy_D_Bell
