Diversity in Science Carnival: Black History Month--Celebrating Our Future

I'm thrilled to host the February 2012 Diversity in Science Carnival!  This DiS Carnival is united around the celebration of young Black researchers who are poised to take charge as leading researchers, teachers and scholars. Challenges abound in tough economic times, but still there are careers to be made, research results to be realized, and students to teach...moreover there are many talented scientists who are up to the task! Please--share the stories and achievements of young scientists who are making their way, and of course we must also celebrate the efforts of those who support them. You can submit your DiS Carnival contributions soon through minoritypostdoc.org or you may feel free to reply to this or any other post here at PhD4Life. Submissions are requested by February 25, 2012.
