"Without a doubt, attending Morehouse College was one of the best decisions that I have made in my short life. It is hard to describe the joy I felt on that great Sunday morning in May 2013 when I walked across the stage on the Century Campus, finally becoming a Morehouse Man. The Baltimore Morehouse Alumni Association and the Morehouse Golf Classic were crucial in helping me achieve that goal. On multiple occasions, the Baltimore Morehouse Alumni Association provided financial assistance to help me pay for the increasingly expensive cost of attending college. I am forever indebted to this organization."

I am fundamentally interested in two questions:
1. How does an individual's response to environmental pressures change based on repeated experiences?

What effect does this have on their genotype?
2. How are our experiences transmitted?

To gain more experience in answering these questions, he  am pursuing a Ph.D. in neuroscience at the Icahn School of Medicine in the Lab of Dr. Eric Nestler. My research focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms of depression, by studying transcriptional changes in mice following repeated stress. While at Mount Sinai I will continue engaging in public communication and outreach on multiple levels.

By using the resources allotted to me during my Ph.D., I plan to propel myself into a role in science policy and fellowship. Where I can engage in using scientific techniques to advance human interest and sustain communities on a local and global level.

 "Dear Morehouse Alumni,

  I hope this message finds everyone well. I want to take this opportunity to thank the entire BMAA Committee. Thank you all for enabling me to continue my education at Morehouse College. The financial assistance you provided me loosened plenty of burden off my entire family. Especially for my father and I can not express in words how much that means to me; so once again, thank you. I understand that this gesture is an investment that cannot be repaid in any other way except hard work and perseverance in my education. The fact that you all decided to take on the task of helping me without getting to know me personally tells me that you see potential in me which really means a lot. Your assistance puts my mind at ease for the time being as I can better focus on what is important, my education. On behalf of the entire Ndeh family, Thank you!!"

 "The Morehouse Man's role within this society is not only to help shape this world, but to influence and force this world to push beyond its bounds while cultivating the fundamental qualities and nuances of what it means to be a human being. Some of the best qualities of being human are but not limited to, the individual who shows compassion, love, and humility. And if one must look to the Morehouse Man, they will see an individual who is not bound by society’s limitations in all things that they do."
