Last full day at #cellbio2024! If you didn’t catch my talk on Saturday, I’m also giving a poster today at B91. It’s been a real pleasure to represent @uiowabiology for the first time at an international conference!

So many others helped me on this journey: writing letters, advocating for me, sharing scientific insights, advising me, and more. Thank you to just a few of those people: @UVADeanJWest, @peiferlabunc, @TanentzapfLab, @BergstralhLab, @JocMcDonald, @negberry. The list could go on.

While a long thread, this really only addresses my research career. I’ve been lucky to have many friends, an endlessly supportive spouse, and other experiences that have shaped me. I’m so thankful for all of the support I’ve had, and I plan to pay it forward at every opportunity.

Don’t forget to close out your #TAGC24 experience by checking out @SofiMendezLopez’s talk tomorrow! She’s won multiple awards for her science communication skills during her time in @RFG_Lab so we know it’s going to be great.
On my way to #TAGC24! 🧬 Looking forward to learning from all the diverse communities and making new connections. I’ll be presenting my work on cell adhesion trafficking 🪰 in the Intracellular Dynamics Session on Sunday at 9:45am. Come check it out!
