From Joyce:

Recently I’ve been feeling a bit worn out from life — don’t we all — and for the first time this birthday is making me feel old. But how lucky am I, how grateful am I, that I get to experience all the joys and inconveniences that come with living this life.

My 23rd birthday is dedicated to those who don’t have my chance at life, and the work that’s creating more chances for them. By supporting the scholarly inquiry of our scientists, we are supporting the health of our society.

Thank you for celebrating my birthday with me!
