Deeply honored to be included in #FacesofCell representing Filipinos, LGBTQ , and underrepresented individuals for whom I may have the privilege of laying a trace of liberty. You empower me to use scientific research to foster empathy - you belong.

So proud to be a part of this story and to have worked alongside @DPoscablo throughout our Ph.D.! Check out our paper on the two different platelet differentiation pathways we discovered during aging 🩸!
Beyond proud to share my thesis work, out today in @CellCellPress! My deepest gratitude to my amazing co-authors, those who come before me whose beautiful work this is built upon, and my extraordinary advisor, Camilla Forsberg. @Forsberg_Lab cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…

A week later and still basking in glow! Thank you to all of my mentors, colleagues, family and friends for their unwavering support, could not have done it without you! ❤️
We are so proud to introduce Dr. Atesh Worthington! Her defense was a remarkable exhibition of her incredible work as a scientist, mentor, and a champion of equitable pedagogy. It did not fail to touch our minds and hearts - truly hemato-POETIC. Bravo, @ateshw !

Always a fun time with the Forsberg crew! #ISSCR2022 was a great reintroduction to in-person conference, great science and great people, looking forward to 2023 🧬 💉🩸🤩
Never met a stem cell we didn’t like. But came to rep the hematopoietic stem cell. What a fantastic time at #ISSCR2022 ! @Forsberg_Lab @eric_w_martin @ateshw @ISSCR
