Thanks to @sciencehomecoming.bsky.social initiative for inspiring me to write this op-ed for my hometown paper, where I reflect on how federal funding shaped my path in science—and what’s at stake if we don’t protect those opportunities for the next generation.

First post here 🦋—figured I’d start by sharing some recent work out of postdoc! These preprints are still coming down the pipeline, so feedback is welcome, and I’ll post bigger threads for each upon publication. Links below 👇
