Today we remembered the 5 students from UWin who were victims of PS752. 2 missiles, 30 seconds apart - ruled a “moment of forgetfulness” that ended the lives of 176 people. Rest in peace Samira & Hamid - we will not push you aside & forget. They mattered. #PS752

In a world of chaos - it is so reassuring to surround yourself with the smart, driven, minds of the future. We need to empower our students to be loud - to stand up to the ignorant, bullies who are threatening democracy and progress. My students give me hope ❤️ (getting in one picture is a challenge

I have a new EA who has never worked with a researcher before. She is handling my administrative email, but research emails have started to leak over. I start seeing holds in my calendar like this 😂🫣 Note to explain the nuances of predatory invitations before I’m booked to go! 😱😂

4 years ago the tragedy of Flight #PS752 took you from us. Hard to believe. Sending love & support to all those who are hurting on this horrible night. So much loss, it’s unbearable 💔 Rest in peace sweet Samira. We will never forget you, our hearts will never be the same.
