[Pajau Vangay, PhD @pvangay]

I spent my entire academic career looking for other Hmong scientists. Last year, I was lucky to have met and collaborate with @ZerVue, @MouaYang21, @ShanyYang, @VueLabUNM, @VangDings, & @KaoLeeYang1. I'm incredibly proud to share our stories with you all.

After I started Hmong in Biosci, Dr. Zer Vue (featured previously!) reached out to me and others with an idea. Recently, that idea of us writing an article sharing our experiences as Hmong-identifying scientists/trainees in STEMM has come to fruition. https://t.co/VZMw9mtMGZ

(1/n) On Teachers Day in India (almost), I want to share story that’s buried deep in my heart. To dig it brings pain & joy - at the same time. This is the story of a remarkable teacher - who understood me better than I understood myself. Why read? It has a lesson for all of us.

That amazing paper you spent years on? That amazing breakthrough you had? Very likely you built this following the work of others (very few exceptions), just as others will build off yours. Science is a continuum. Want to leave a lasting legacy in science? Be generous & be kind.

"Many of us face the perception that the more time a scientist spends popularizing science, the less scientifically accomplished they are. That is far from true," writes @frakyc in this week's #ScienceWorkingLife. https://t.co/svKdOl5nyW @ScienceCareers
