It is an honor to share that I have been selected as an NIH BIRCWH K12 Scholar at VCU! My project will examine sex differences in hip muscles & the link to injury following ankle sprains. I am so thankful to work with my mentor team & follow in the footsteps of giants 😊 🧪 👩‍🔬 📑

I had the opportunity to contribute to this paper before I joined the VA. The BLUF is that the benefits of aerobic exercise in tactical athletes/veterans with mTBI is likely functional and not structural. Thank you @SammoWalton for inviting me to the party
