AfroBiotech was such a wonderful conference, with my very first invited talk. I had a great time listening to other speakers, networking with students/faculty, and participating as a poster session judge. I especially appreciated feeling seen and getting the opportunity to share my women's health research. I look forward to attending and supporting future AfroBiotech meetings.
