Megan Killian
I was a #firstgen college student in engineering, now tenured professor at UMich. Skeets are my own.
I lead a team studying musculoskeletal physiology, development, and healing. We study how the skeleton grows and how connective tissues guide this process.

- Reposted by Megan KillianAOC: What we saw today was a horrific act of violence. What we have seen and are now seeing is that ICE has not just become an anti-immigrant force—it is becoming an anti-civilian, paramilitary organization. People are being taken off the streets for exercising their free speech rights.
