After an incredibly long wait (and much anxiety), I’m excited to share that I’ve received an NIH/ NCI K99/R00 award. Deeply grateful to my mentors, collaborators, and labmates for their support —this is just the beginning. #K99 #NIH #FuturePI #StructuralBiology #NCI #NMR

This speech not only provides valuable knowledge but also ignites a spirit of action, guiding us toward a decentralized, strong, and promising future for the Pi Network. 💼 This event is organized by Mr. Floribert Rumesha, Head of GCV Ambassadors in the DRC. 📺 Watch the full speech below ⬇️Please read my speech below. 📌 Every action we take today will shape the future of the Pi Network! Together, we will write the success story of the Pi community! #PiNetwork #GCV #PioneersLumambashi #FuturePi ------------------------------------------------- JoJo's Speech at the Pi Network Lumambashi Conference --- Greetings to all the Pioneers of Lumambashi! It is truly an honor to be here today and share with you our journey in building a strong and sustainable ecosystem for the Pi Network. First and foremost, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the organizers and the entire Kisangani community for dedicating your time and efforts to this conference. 🧩1. Building a Sustainable Pi Network Ecosystem The ecosystem is the heart of the Pi Network project. A strong ecosystem not only creates real value for Pi but also establishes trust and long-term growth for the community. To build a sustainable ecosystem, we need to focus on three key elements: 1. Onboarding Merchants: Each merchant joining the ecosystem is not just a Pi acceptor but a driver of Pi's real value in everyday transactions. 2. Encouraging Real Transactions: When real-world transactions take place, Pi's value moves beyond theory and becomes an integral part of daily life, making Pi stronger and more sustainable. 3. Supporting the Community: We cannot build the ecosystem alone. Pioneers need to collaborate, support one another, and work together to achieve our common goals. --- 🧩2. The GCV Handbook: A Powerful Tool We have developed the GCV Handbook to equip you with the necessary knowledge to actively participate in the GCV movement. This handbook is not just a training manual but also a roadmap to help you understand: - How to approach merchants and bring them into the Pi ecosystem. - How to organize transactions using GCV pricing or partial GCV pricing. - The importance of maintaining the Global Consensus Value (GCV). The handbook is designed not only for leaders but also for every Pioneer who wants to contribute to the success of the Pi Network. --- 🧩3. A Call to Action: Be Inspired! Today, I want to inspire every Pioneer in this room. You are the true pioneers—leaders not just in Lumambashi but around the globe. Take action! Start with small steps such as: - Reaching out to a local merchant and sharing the benefits of the Pi Network with them. - Conducting even the smallest transaction with Pi to help establish its historical value. - Participating in training sessions and using the GCV Handbook to develop your skills and knowledge. --- 🧩4. A Shared Vision: The Future of Pi Network Imagine a future where Kisangani becomes a hub of Pi transactions on the global map. Every business, every Pioneer in this community will contribute to making this vision a reality. A strong ecosystem cannot be built in a day, but with persistence, unity, and continuous action, we will achieve this goal. --- Thank you, Pioneers of Lumambashi , for following and participating in this mission. Remember: Your actions today will shape the future of the Pi Network. Together, we will build a decentralized, strong, and promising future. Thank you!

Why do we need Night Science and why is creativity not taught in science education? @ItaiYanai and @StearnsLab are asking us to take a step back from hypothesis testing and develop our creative, improvisational skills - crucial for generating research ideas as a #FuturePI.
