曼迪·希尔（Mandy Hill），drph，mph， 和Armand Brown, PhD，被命名为Cell Mentors1,000 Inspiring Black Scientists in America.
The Community of Scholars formed the list of 1,000 Inspiring Black Scientists in America to dismantle the myth that outstanding Black scientists make up a small percentage of the scientific community.
“Black culture is the archetype for innovation, distinction, creativity, intelligence, spirituality, and healing,” the Community of Scholars said. “Black culture is distinct, and it has a heavy influence on American and global cultures. Likewise, Black talent is both ubiquitous and abundant, but the excellence of Black people is often obscured.”
Hill, director of Population Health and associate professor in theDepartment of Emergency Medicine, joined the faculty at McGovern Medical School as a senior research associate in 2007 and became an assistant professor in 2009. Her research priority is to create a niche that merges public health and emergency medicine with a concentration on HIV/AIDS, STI, and cervical cancer prevention.
她于2004年获得了杜兰大学的公共卫生硕士学位，并于2007年获得了UTHealth公共卫生学院的公共卫生博士学位。
Hill said that when she first saw her name listed among the “1,000 Inspiring Black Scientists in America,” that she thought, “This must be a mistake.”
她说：“作为一名科学家，我们接受大多数专业在职业生涯中永远不会经历的水平上的失败。”“我们花了几个月的时间写赠款，这些赠款经常被拒绝。我们撰写的手稿被认为是不值得期刊的手稿，而不是被接受的手稿。
“So, when we receive positive accolades, especially among our peers, it feels surreal. It’s an honor and a privilege to be listed among vaccine developers, mathematicians, clinical researchers, and groundbreakers in science. It’s most of all purposeful to be etched in history as one of the 1,000 Black scientists who inspired a generation of future scientists.”
Brown is a postdoctoral research fellow in the微生物学和分子遗传学系这是他自2016年以来一直担任的职位。他的研究集中在开发新疗法以治疗抗菌病原体。beplay苹果手机能用吗他于2014年获得了德克萨斯大学健康科学中心生物医学科学研究生院的哲学博士学位。
