Science Influencers

Using ArcGIS to map women’s healthcare access across rural areas — and uncover where services are needed most. Data-driven policy starts with understanding the landscape. 🗺️💡 #ScienceInfluencers #USDA #MappingHealth #WomenInSTEM

How does geography shape women’s health? My research uses ArcGIS to connect healthcare center distribution with illness trends in rural communities: turning maps into meaningful change. #ScienceInfluencers #ScienceForEveryone #USDA #WomensHealth #HealthEquity

Howdy, everyone! My name is Adeeba, and I’m a junior bio-med major (English minor!) from Katy, Texas. During my time in the Science Influencers Mini-program, I’m hoping to research how geographic information can inform healthcare policy. #ScienceInfluencers #USDA #RuralHealth

Behind every scientific discovery is a storyteller.📖✨ Through the USDA #ScienceInfluencers program, we’re learning how to connect people to science, one conversation at a time.✨ #USDA #ScienceCommunication #ScienceForEveryone

Adolescents spend hours on social media every day, but how does that time really affect their well-being? I’m studying that question with @ScienceInfluencers and Project SMART.✨ Small habits, big impact. 🐛🦋 #ScienceInfluencers #USDA #ProjectSMART #ScienceCommunication

Did you know the REEU-ECN Program has its own podcast series? I’m excited to be creating new episodes this semester! Tune in to meet the next group of Science Influencers! #REEU #ScienceCommunication #Podcast

This semester I’m diving into content creation for the REEU Programs! What should I highlight — student experiences, research, or fieldwork? #ScienceInfluencers #REEU

Meet Emily! As a fifth-generation agriculturalist from Cali, Emily is passionate about connecting producers and consumers. She is studying ag comm and journalism, with minors in graphic design and poultry science. Stay tuned today for more of Emily’s posts! #ScienceInfluencer

Meet Alyson! Alyson is a member of our Science Influencers Mini Program cohort! She is passionate about health, research, and community outreach. She’s a junior biomed major at Texas A&M. Stay tuned today for more of Alyson’s posts! #ScienceInfluencer #WomenInSTEM

Qualitative research is helping bridge the gap between producer and politician. My study analyzes how agricultural policy influences AI development within our industry. I hope to utilize my funding to better communicate innovation and ideas with American prod ucers.

Meet Cole — member of our 2025-26 Mini Program. "What if I told you AI is the future of Ag? My research explores how agricultural policy is shaping AI guidelines that promote sustainability, promote rural development, and uplift the men and women behind our food systems."

Join us for our annual Research Symposium, where our REEU students present about their research and internships experiences! Register here: forms.office.com/r/MT42mnB75R This is a @tamusystem program funded by @USDA_NIFA #REEU #NIFAImpacts @TAMU @AgriLife @ALECaggies @USDAgov

Weight loss is not just physical, but psychological too! The PATH Trial investigates the role of yoga’s mental benefits in addition to a weight loss program. To learn more, visit the trial website at pathtrial.org/home #USDA #ScienceInfluencers

•My first project from Dr. Jessica Unick was to investigate the literature on resistance training and exercise. After hours of scientific edification, what I learned shocked me.  Research isn’t just about what you find; it’s also about exploring the findings of others! #USDA

Agricultural advancements are helpful, but only if producers implement them.  Rebranding The Texas Conservation & Sustainability Initiative showed me how much impact we can make through clear messaging. #USDA #ScienceInfluencers

A good brand guide is like a map; it keeps everyone headed in the same direction. During my internship, I’ve seen how these elements keep a brand consistent, trustworthy, and memorable. #ScienceInfluencers #USDA
