We wrap up #HispanicHeritageMonth on my insightful conversation with Dr. @DianneLaboy (congrats!)

She shares how her journey from Puerto Rico to the mainland was made easy due to science & math, both of which transcend language barriers - something immigrants can relate to!

[TakaraBioUSA @TakaraBioUSA]

In our final #HispanicHeritageMonth spotlight interview, we talked with recent UCSF graduate Dr. Dianne Laboy Cintrón about noncoding #RNA, her journey, and her advice for underrepresented students seeking community in #STEM: https://t.co/YiV4QzdVUG

[Prahatha (Anya) Venkatraman, PhD (She/her) @dameofnone]

Did you have an unconventional path towards your PhD? Did you wish you wanted to quit and start a bakery? Did you face challenges including dealing with consequences from natural disasters?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, Darya’s story will resonate with you!

[TakaraBioUSA @TakaraBioUSA]

Continuing our celebration of #HispanicHeritageMonth, we talked with Dr. Darya Marchany-Rivera, a beamline scientist at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, about her passion for helping people—including Hispanic students—meet their goals: https://t.co/ICpZXxlMfP

Another fun chat with @LoydaMorales1

It has been joyful to watch Loyda’s journey from a graduate student to her current role!

[TakaraBioUSA @TakaraBioUSA]
