Re-Envisioning Culture

Building a diverse group of educators, students, community members, and STEM professionals to transform the culture of undergraduate biology biology education.

[Re-Envisioning Culture @REC_Network1]

The Re-Envisioning Culture Network (REC Network) is a group of diverse individuals across institutions of higher education, STEM careers, K-12 education, Black cultural spaces, and the larger community who strive to enhance the STEM experiences of Black undergraduate students!

I’m taking my talents to a new team!

I am excited to join the @UIC_CollegeofEd family as an Assistant Professor of Identity and Justice in STEM Education in the Educational Psychology Department.

#MotivationalMonday

In 1876, Edward Alexander Bouchet made history by becoming the first African American PhD physicist, and the sixth person of any race to receive a PhD in physics from an American university. Bouchet went on to inspire black students as a science teacher.✊🏾🧬

#ThrowbackThursday

Today we honor Jessie Isabelle Price! Her PhD work centred around the bacterium, Pasteurella anatipestifer, and its impact on ducks. She later developed a vaccine for Long Island “New Duck Disease”.🤓

Black in Bio Facts!:

Roger Arliner Young was the first African-American woman to receive a doctorate in zoology, after years of juggling research and teaching with the burden of caring for her invalid mother. Her story is one of grit and perseverance.
