We are also proud to see Joi Bryant move forward on her path to pursue her career goals of earning her MD as an Obstetrician and Gynecologist. Joi spent the last year teaching elementary students and still dedicated her after-school time to being a Child Team member in our Mom Power project. Joi was accepted into post-baccalaureate programs in Louisiana, California, and Mississippi and will be leaving the Gray Lab to further her medical science studies. Congratulations, Joi!

Finally, we are incredibly proud to see our fifth-year doctoral student, Erin Glackin graduate and head off to her internship site at the University of Denver’s MHCD Infant Mental Health Track. Erin will be missed as a leader in the lab, but we know she is headed for big things!
