“I have been a member of the RNA Society for many years and I truly enjoy being part of this supportive and welcoming community. I am thrilled and honored to be elected to the Board of Directors. As a member of this panel, I aim to increase the visibility of highly skilled young scientists of diverse backgrounds and make their voice heard at the RNA Society.
