Happy Independence Day to Mali! 🇲🇱 Some fun facts about Mali: 🟢 The capital city of Mali is Bamako! 🟡 Mali was home to the richest man who has ever lived, Mansa Musa, the first king of Timbuktu, who had a fortune of around $400 billion in todays time!
It's not my birthday until next week, but I received a fantastic early birthday gift today... My final PhD manuscript is finally under review!
Getting ready to start week 2 of many in the @JdowenL Excited to see what’s to come the next few years!
Staff members of our research community are great sources of mentorship for trainees. Today, we're recognizing Susan McMahan Cheek at @UNC_GMB and @UNC_Biology as a 2021-22 Science Mentoring Award winner! Read more about all of this year's honorees here: go.unc.edu/OGEmentor.
Today is the 5 year anniversary of my PhD thesis defense! Valentine’s day to me will always be the day to SET(D2) the mood for science!
My 3 Minute Thesis submission made the top 10! Come check out all top 10 presentations this Wednesday from 5-6pm! @UNC_GradSchool Link to Register: unc.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

Shots fired (metaphorically) in my grad class when I reminded the students that this class is not epigenetics - it's REAL genetics! (We do have two class meetings to cover the sub-field of epigenetics.)
We have the best grad students, don't we @UNC_GradSchool
So excited #UNC Master's student Savannah Ryburn is able to continue her valuable research using DNA analysis to study shark diets in Galapagos! Starting in Morehead City and now in #Galapagos at our @GSCGalapagos...love this journey! #SharkWeek bit.ly/36HUnPH
Was an absolute pleasure to defend in front of some of my favorite scientists, friends, and family yesterday (I passed! 🎉). The most amazing part of this experience has been recognizing and connecting with the many, many mentors and peers who supported me over the years and 1/2
