Wonderful book by my favorite Northwestern professor, Dr. Marian! The way we communicate and use language truly alters the way we perceive and process the world around us. It’s a great day to be multilingual!

@nmdp_org
... I recommend everyone sign up as a donor (if able)! It's such an easy process, and you never know when you can make a huge difference in someone's life
Just wrapped up judging at the Dallas Regional Science & Engineering Fair... it was so exciting to see the enthusiasm for science among the next generation. Hope my feedback fueled their passion for STEM!
Check out our recent publication detailing the life of Dr. Odeku. It was great learning about him, the work he did for the motherland and the vision he and others had for Global Neurosurgery.
Great work by Kwadwo and team.
