Based on occupied Ramaytush Ohlone and Lenni-Lenape land, today @JKXcomics would like to highlight and honor Diné #WomenInSTEM scientist Dr Katrina Claw (@/drkatclaw on twitter) for #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth, a professor @CUAnschultz. Dr. Claw is a geneticist by training, earning her PhD and postdoctoral training from @uofwa. Her science focuses on indigenous communities where she can best act as a conduit between Native knowledge and western science and be the representation for other #IndigenousInSTEM. As a postdoc, her research focused on vitamin deficiency in Alaskan Natives. Now Dr. Claw’s lab focuses on understanding drug responses in Indigenous communities to improve personalized medicine and we was recently awarded the 2020 Genomic Innovator Award for her efforts. Thank you for being a role model and all that you do Dr. Claw! ______ 🎨 by @jayeperview . . . #ThisIsWhatAScientistLooksLike #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth #IndigenousHeritageMonth #WomenInSTEM #IndigenousInSTEM #Art #Illustration #DigitalArt #Portrait #KatrinaClaw #genetics #WomenInSTEM https://www.instagram.com/p/CIEf9TAj-NS/?igshid=126a9xf9dbshw
