In Groningen for #EPSA25. I am extreamely happy of being part of the symposium on “Race in Genomics” organized by @celsoneto.bsky.social. Very engaging, detailed and thought provoking talks on the use and misuse of race and ancestry labels in genomics studies. #philsci

In the last two days, I had the opportunity to learn about science policy and advocacy and put it into practice visiting Capitol Hill as part of the @aaas.org
Case Workshop. Working alongside the delegation of fellow PhD students from BU, UMass Amherst and MIT was truly inspiring. #MakingOurCase
