Around JCFA
JCFA Scientist of the Month
Aasyana S. is an American environmental scientist who has focused her intellectual curiosity on how to improve the current state of the environment. She is constantly asking questions that reflect deep insight into the potential threats our environment faces. Her dedication to understanding the environment have made her a strong figure in the progression and promotion of the environmental sciences. Aasyana embodies Dr. Carson's idea that "One way to open your eyes is to ask yourself, 'What if I had never seen this before? What if I knew I would never see it again?'".
