Last Thursday, IBiS students were able to attend a seminar from and each lunch with Dr. Charles M. Rice, Winner of the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his work on the discovery of the Hepatitis C virus. How inspiring!

It is the honor of a lifetime to join @kamalaharris in this campaign.
I’m all in.
Vice President Harris is showing us the politics of what’s possible. It reminds me a bit of the first day of school.

Kamala Harris will be the next President of the United States. I pledge my full support to ensure her victory in November.
Now more than ever, it is crucial that our party and country swiftly unite to defeat Donald Trump and the threat to American democracy.
Let’s get to work.

My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.

Last few weeks were heated because we all understand the stakes and share the same goal. I don’t think Trump and MAGA are ready for how united and energized we’re about to be.
Sadie Wignall retweeted
A courageous and selfless decision. The President did what he’s done for the last four years - he listened to the American people and put the country’s interests ahead of his own.
The exact opposite of Donald Trump.
