Juneteenth
Dr. Hightow-Weidman made the decision to close her lab for Juneteenth this year—before the federal recognition of the holiday.
“We need to all reflect on the significance of this holiday and what it means for our society moving forward.” – Dr. Hightow-Weidman
Her Behavior and Technology Lab, known as the BATLab, has a broadly diverse staff and directs research that prioritizes sexual and gender minority youth and young adults of color.
