Big shout-out to Dr. Hincapie-Castillo fostering this effort to be more inclusive with @societyforepi meeting abstract. Inclusion should be top of mind before and after increasing diversity.

Two weeks ago, I had four precious 12-year-old girls, including my daughter, with me at the county fair. They were getting blue Icees and corndogs for the walk to the car and ride home. (1/21)

#SER2022 has been my best @societyforepi meeting yet! Great seeing colleagues and friends from @UNCpublichealth, hanging out with new friends at the student/postdoc social, and celebrating the inspiring work of other trainees in epidemiology.

It was wonderful reconnecting with and meeting so many inspiring and genuinely nice fellow students, trainees and ECRs at #SER2022. As @alvinthomas13 said something along these lines last night "I've found a home here @societyforepi #SERSPC" 🥰 Safe travels! See you next year!
