In our first breakout session 1: SciComm Across Borders, Dr. Prado discusses the importance of “fair trade” community engagement and promoting knowledge transfer between cultures with an empathy first approach.
A slide from Paola Prado, PhD's talk: Fair Traed community engagement. The slide reads: Institutional agents are invited into a community to carefully listen and plan a collaboration that prioritizes the intentions and objectives of ALL partners.

Our other OC co chair is Dr. (!!) Ellie Darling! Ellie just defended her dissertation, so congratulations to Dr. Darling! For her degree, Ellie worked in the Applied Nematology laboratory, within the Department of Entomology at Michigan State University.
