Affirmative action was never a complete answer in the drive towards a more just society. But for generations of students who had been systematically excluded from most of America’s key institutions—it gave us the chance to show we more than deserved a seat at the table.

At Macalester, assembling a diverse student body will remain a top priority and, though we are concerned about the effects of today’s SCOTUS ruling, we are prepared to do everything possible to ensure that the opportunity of a Macalester education remains accessible to everyone.
I’m proud to announce that Bardwell lab undergrad Kiku Yoneda received not one but TWO @UCIrvine Chancellor’s Awards for the research she presented at the @UciUrop symposium, one for her poster, and one for her oral presentation! Great work Kiku! @UCIBioSci
Met the real US Rep Katie Porter yesterday. Was thrilled when she remembered she'd endorsed my campaign for Municipal Water District of OC. "It's the OC climate change battlefield no-one knows about!" Or words to that effect.

Just posted on #bioRxiv, our latest manuscript by lead @abardwel, in collaboration with @FrumanLab. A peptide version of the #IQGAP1 WW domain has potent anti-tumor activity, and this study identifies a possible target–the catalytic subunit of #PI3kinase, a known driver #oncogene
Grateful to @RepKatiePorter for endorsing my campaign for the Municipal Water District of Orange County CA. Thanks for shining a bright light on regional water governance reform & rapid climate change action.
