BRAINS 2019 Cohort
University of Rochester School of Medicine Del Monte Institute For Neuroscience Alumni Award presented by Dr. John Foxe to Dr. Νathan A. Smith at Society for Neuroscience 2019 in Chicago.
Had a fantastic discussion with Johnny Foxe about my groundbreaking glial cell research and pioneering work in diversifying neuroscience as the Associate Dean at University of Rochester SMD. We explored my Louisiana roots, the influences of my family, and my passion for giving back. @URNeuroscience #Brain #neuroscience #NeurosciencePerspectives #emotion
