Bio

Nicole Rivera Acevedo is currently a senior in the InterAmerican University of Puerto Rico, Aguadilla campus majoring in Biology. She currently offers on-campus tutoring services to academically strengthen students in Biology and Math courses for college success. At the same time, she gets involved with her communities through student associations such as: Society for the Advancement of Chicanos/Hispanic (SACNAS), MEDLIFE Movement, Leaders of Honor Association, etc... As a Puerto Rican, she has seen that there is a lack of representation for the development of toxicology. This is why she is interested in pursuing a career in clinical toxicology. Being part of the ToxMSDT makes her have the objective of expanding her knowledge, networking and delving into what it means to be a toxicologist in all its facets.
