Founder
Shantée N. Ayala Rosario
“I am currently a graduate student at the University of California, Los Angeles. Since I was an undergraduate researcher in Neuroscience since the year 2015 and am now interested studying how trauma manifests in the brain for my dissertation in the Dr. Gina Poe laboratory. I highly value mentorship; therefore, I hope ‘Science, Failure, and Soul’ can serve as a useful mentorship tool for visitors.”

“I am not pursuing a career at the moment but I have always loved the Arts and History. I would like to follow a career in photography and hope to come to understand and connect with people through it. ‘Science, Failure, and Soul’ has served as a motivator to continue to pursue this passion.”

“I am currently a biology undergraduate at the University of Puerto Rico. For the past two years, I have been doing research and aim to pursue a Ph.D. in Neuroscience, focusing on the cellular mechanisms of memory. I also participate actively in science outreach, extending knowledge from the bench to the community! Hence, we hope ‘Science, Failure, and Soul’ becomes a learning tool that fuels your motivation toward your career of choice.”
Networks are the Basis of Opportunity!
I started this blog in order to share experiences that shaped the lives of students like myself. Hopefully any information shared will guide another student toward success. I highly value mentorship because people I have met have influenced my journey.
