[typography font=”Cantarell” size=”16″ size_format=”px” color=”#71b307″]Joslynn Lee is of the Parrot Clan of my people.<\/strong>[\/typography] This is the Keres way (Laguna and Acoma Pueblo) to introduce oneself.<\/p>\n

There are over 567 federally recognized tribes in the US. I represent three: Navajo Nation, Pueblo of Laguna, and Pueblo of Acoma.<\/p>\n

Biography<\/strong>: I grew up on the Navajo Reservation in New Mexico. At a young age, I remember herding goats with shin\u00e1l\u00ed (my grandma in Din\u00e9). She would tell stories about the land during these walks; she was my first scientist. We would also look for this special plant with yellow flowers, d\u00e9\u00e9h (wild tea in Din\u00e9). It was interesting to see vegetation in the arid, high desert. Why did some plants survive out here with little water? Near my dya’au (grandma in Keres) in the village of Mesita on the Laguna Pueblo Reservation, it was a similar landscape. The stories of cultivating the area spoke of the resilience of my people.<\/p>\n

I studied\u00a0chemistry at Fort Lewis College as an undergraduate. I encountered amazing mentors who encouraged me to do research and consider graduate school.\u00a0Coming from a Native background, I appreciated that my professors were very open-minded with my cultural values. After undergrad, I moved to Boston to work as a\u00a0bioanalytical chemist at Vertex Pharmaceuticals. [READ MORE]<\/a><\/p>\n
