    Profile photo of Michael Gomez

    NERDS provided me with the academic guidance, community, and funding that helped me navigate my graduate program. I learned valuable lessons in how to select a mentor, shared stories with fellow NERDS and learned from each others experiences. The fellowship funding greatly expanded my options for what labs I could join as well as travel for conferences.
