Comments
"DisDos truly is a golden experience dear to my heart as it was a dream come true. Since my first year of undergraduate, I wanted to create a platform that would unite people by supporting them in sharing their talents and skills with each other and acquiring useful resources in a timely manner. When I was reflecting after the 2023 conference and reviewing attendees' feedback, I was overwhelmed by the love and encouragement they provided me of appreciating the "friendly environment," "community," "networking," and "learning experience." I felt so touched that the emotions I had invested into DisDos were amplifying like a domino effect. I will continue to strive so DisDos is not just another science organization but a family filled with caring, honest, hardworking, and curious members."
