Today, I was honored to celebrate the life of Prof ChoKyun Rha, the first Asian female tenured faculty at MIT, who made countless discoveries in biopolymers and biomaterials. I only met her once, but am thankful to her and all the women who paved the way for me to be a scientist.
From tiny metal people to holiday wreaths to styrofoam balls with things sticking out. The materials team recycled old supplies and exercised our creative sides today!
