Today we are excited to introduce you to Dr. Jonelle Orridge, PhD!!!!⠀⠀
Dr. Orridge is a Biologist currently serving as the Interim Dean at Broward College ⠀
Dr. Jonelle Orridge attended St. John’s University and received a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology with a minor in Environmental Science. She completed her Ph. D in Ecology, Evolution and Animal Behavior at the City University of New York (CUNY) Graduate School.⠀⠀
She gained experience in curriculum development using her dissertation research to engage elementary and high school teachers to promote science inquiry in the K-12 classroom. After being an adjunct at different colleges in the CUNY system, she found her passion for teaching overpowered her desire to perform research. ⠀⠀
That decision brought her to Broward College where has been for the past 7 years. She has earned her continuing contract (tenure) at Broward College and is currently serving as the Interim Associate Dean of Science and Wellness for their North Campus. ⠀⠀
She also serves as a board member for , whose mission is to expose minority and underrepresented kids to the different fields of STEM.  ⠀⠀

Dr.Patricia Era Bath, MD was a prominent ophthalmologist, research and laser scientist. She was was the first African American woman physician to receive a patent for a medical invention. 
She received her B.S. in chemistry from Hunter College in New York and later her Medical Doctorate degree from Howard University Medical School in Washington, DC.
Dr. Bath was a trail blazer form the beginning!
👩🏽‍⚕️ She was the first African American resident in the New York University School of Medicine.
👩🏽‍⚕️ During her time there she noticed the disproportionate number of blind cases amongst those in black communities. So she proposed a new worldwide system known as community ophthalmology where trained eye care volunteers visit senior centers and day care programs to test the vision and screen for cataracts, glaucoma, and other serious eye conditions. 
👩🏽‍⚕️ In 1974, she became the first African american surgeon at UCLA Medical Center
👩🏽‍⚕️ In 1975, she became the first woman faculty member of the UCLA Jules Stein Eye Institute. Even through this accomplishment she endured racism, but continued to do her work.
What an inspiration!
👩🏽‍⚕️ In 1983, she was chair of the ophthalmology residency training program at Drew and UCLA, becoming the first woman to hold that position in the nation.
👩🏽‍⚕️ On May 17, 1988, Dr. Bath received a patent for her invention, the Laserphaco Probe, and the new technique used for cataract surgery. The device restored the sight of thousands of patients worldwide and was the only one available for the removal of cataracts.
👩🏽‍⚕️ In 2001, Dr. Bath was inducted into the International Women in Medicine Hall of Fame.
Dr. Bath has brought an incredible amount of knowledge to our communities and ensured that she taught the future how to continue the marathon!

The first week of our Virtual Summer Stem camp has been a major success!🥇🎊🥳
We talked about pH and the world around us and how electricity is the flow of electrons.
We tested different solutions to determine their pH.👩‍🔬👨‍🔬
We capped the week by creating a galvanic cell with a lemon!🔋🍋
Get ready for next....as we will be discussing circuits and how they can create locomotion🏎! Get ready for week 2....Technology!!!!!

While much of the planet is staying at home due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, sea turtles appear to be taking advantage of the peace and quiet.

At least 76 leatherback sea turtle nests have been found on Juno Beach in South Florida since the end of February, according to the Loggerhead Marine Life Center. While it’s still early in the season, the number of nests looks promising. It’s too soon to say whether this boost in numbers is directly attributed to the Covid-19 lockdown measures, but either way, it's reassuring to see this fragile natural process continuing to tick on despite the wider problems in the world.

Leatherbacks (Dermochelys coriacea) are the largest living species of turtle, weighing up to 900 kilograms (just under 2,000 pounds) and measuring up to 1.8 meters (6 feet). Unlike other species of sea turtle, they don’t have a hard shell or scales but a back covered with firm rubbery skin. The species is considered vulnerable to extinction under the IUCN Red List and is thought to be suffering from declining numbers across the world.

On May 27 we launch into a new era of human spaceflight.We launch for the first time in 9 years from American soil, with American Astronauts on an American rocket.
We launch together with our partners at as part of our Commercial Crew Program.
We .Pictured here is SpaceX’s Crew Dragon spacecraft that will carry Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley to the . It will lift off on a Falcon 9 rocket, from Launch Complex 39A in Florida, for the Demo-2 mission, the final flight test for SpaceX. The mission will validate our partner's crew capabilities to return American spaceflight from American soil since the end of the space shuttle program so that we can continue preparing our missions to the Moon -- and beyond.
