It’s finally announced! Super thrilled I’ve been awarded the Roberta G. Simmons Outstanding Dissertation Award.
I study elements of health that have been historically sidelined, so for my work to be recognized like this by @ASAnews means a lot to me.
Have job market advice? Many mentees who signed up are looking for some insight. If you're interested in being a mentor, don't wait to sign up! 👀
