"Sonali Majumdar has crafted a must-read for the nearly half of US STEM graduate students and postdocs who are, as she was, international scholars. Enlivened by countless stories, Majumdar navigates opaque US immigration regulations; animates bold life decisions; illuminates pathways for support, growth, validation, and well-being; and celebrates the crucial truth that international scientists bring fresh identities, perspectives, experience, and leadership that elevate innovation and science itself. Moreover, Thriving as an International Scientist is packed with wisdom--implicit and explicit--for domestic trainees, mentors, scholars, and policymakers."--Keith Yamamoto, Professor Emeritus and Vice Chancellor for Science Policy and Strategy, University of California, San Francisco
