To all the POC who unfortunately did not match this cycle - you are all amazing, no system can take that from y’all. Please feel free to reach out to me if you want to talk about it/just want to say hi. I matched my second cycle and i know the heartache is real. Here for y’all!❤️

Update: answered my own question by tuning into @katiehuangGC abstract! Very insightful - hoping GC admissions uses this data to foster more inclusion in the field #NSGC21#GCChat
Looking at EDI goals and admission with Dr. Sarah Singletary Walker at #NSGC21 - is it time to talk about barriers to entry for many diverse GC hopefuls (experience, tuition/CoL, location, etc)? #GCChat

13-y old talks about his decision to have genetic testing, guided by a psychologist and care team #NSGC21#genetics Let’s not make arbitrary rules #CDH1#gcchat
Asking for ethnicity to determine testing eligibility is inequitable. & race is not a “dirty word”, it is important to understand how this social construct impacts health disparities. Absolutely loved the talk at #NSGC21 this morning from @GoodGenesGC, @srod0587, and @ElizFiegCGC
To not indict the officers for murder is to claim #BreonnaTaylor killed herself. Racist America constantly kills Black people and then tells Black people we killed ourselves. Racism extends past death. But we’ll never stop declaring that our lives matter, that our deaths matter.
Also very relevant to GC school. Glad I have classmates who keep our group chat very well active and alive, but that in person validation of sharing things like the “am I the only one who feels lost?” side looks in class is still a missing piece. #GCchat
When people say what if some living thing could talk, I think: they’re talking all the time - they are communicating with molecules, gestures, biomes. The anthropocentric view of “nature” talking metaphor paints nature as silent. It’s not silent, we are just not listening.
