Non POC mentors.. When giving advice to your POC trainees… ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND.. We cannot navigate in the world the same way you do… That’s not a negative towards you.. it’s a fact.. and should always be kept in mind when mentoring us.

3 more posters that I really enjoyed: (not my field, pls correct me if something's wrong) 1) Ke’La Kimble showing environmental influences on sea spray aerosols (SSA) in large scale lab experiments: Higher wind/lower temperature lead to higher particle# @kelakimble @Scripps_Ocean

It’s a blessing to know people are speaking highly of you in rooms you’ve never stepped foot in.
