Title of the piece: “illuminating memory”. It's always a pleasure to find a popular magazine ⁦⁦@NatGeo⁩ covering this important topic. How about the picture I took? Memorable no? #arayalab #CAN_ACN

Friends, we need your help. An Wu, a postdoc from UCSD is missing post-Cosyne. We're trying to locate her. We're worried she may have been staying at a building that had a bad fire this week. If you have any information about where An was staying or last seen please contact me.
