Impact Story: Jennifer Thompson, MD

Jennifer Thompson, MD
2024 Johnson & Johnson DEI Award

From Dr. Thompson

Receiving the Johnson and Johnson Diversity, Equity and Inclusion scholarship was an amazing opportunity for me. As a resident planning to pursue a toxicology fellowship this year I was so grateful to be able to attend ACMT which was an opportunity to solidify that the field of medical toxicology was the right field for me. It was inspiring hearing about and seeing all the wonderful research that comes out of this field. Attending this conference left me excited for the future and also left me with a desire to share some of the innovative things I learned with my home institution. The support received along with the scholarship was also amazing. Being able to interact with fellow peers and also network with so many amazing folks was an added bonus . 

I am very grateful for the opportunity this scholarship provided me as it feels like it left a long impact.
