Guess I should introduce myself! Hola, me llamo Melissa. I'm a proud Latina (Puerto Rican & Mexican) who currently lives in Australia as she chugs along doing her PhD. I talk about marine conservation, our oceans, sharks, and the environment as a whole. You might've seen me on TV or read my books!

I have also heard good things about the New PI slack. I'm too old to have benefitted but seems like it would have been quite helpful with networking! #QueerInSTEM #WomenInSTEM #LatinaInSTEM #BlackInSTEM

Are you a new PI starting a lab in biological or biomedical science? I'm an old guy but watching my younger and now mid-career colleagues benefit from networking, check out New PI Slack. It's members have really jump-started their careers via this interaction 🧪

Just came out of QPR training (qprinstitute.com) at my institution. I've done this training before. At my last institution is was voluntary. Here it is mandatory. I am glad mental health is being taken more seriously in STEM. It is important for everyone. #LatinaInSTEM #WomenInSTEM #QueerInSTEM

The paper and SI put into perspective that I've done a lot of work! Hard part is always writing the story of why we're doing what we're doing and why you should care! 😀 Still more to go and of course lot of feedback to it up to shape for publication!:) #LatinainSTEM #geologist

Nature's blueprint defines species makeup for sharks, rays
A new study led by shark ecologist and FIU alumna Naomi F. Farabaugh found the type of species and number of sharks and rays differed between islands. The reason? Natural factors.

Happy #HispanicHeritageMonth! 🌺💗

Hispanic communities are among the fastest-growing demographics in the US and yet remain underrepresented.

We're highlighting Latina women who are doing amazing things in STEAM, so stay tuned! 🌟
