Congratulations to Niko Rigney, one of the winners of the New Investigator awards, whose talk "Behavioral consequences of sex differences in vasopressin innervation" is happening now! ♂️🧠♀️
@NikoRigney
After interviewing in several great labs for the past few months, I’ve decided on my next science home!
I’ll be starting 2022 as a postdoc in Stephanie Correa’s lab!
I met @Profa_Correa at OSSD 2 years ago and have been a fan ever since. I am super excited to join her team!!
If you’re trans and today is hard because your mother doesn’t accept you, please know I’m your mom now and I love you. No gifts required, just brush your teeth, drink some water, and do what brings you joy. 💜
@BlackInNeuro@HurdLab@HurdLab I attended your Q&A session for UT Austin and absolutely loved talking to you. Can’t wait to attend the seminar tomorrow!
