Sarina Saturn is an editor of the ADVANCE Journal and a transdisciplinary neuroscientist, educator, researcher, mentor and community builder dedicated to advocating for marginalized communities including BIPOC, 2SLGBTQIA+ and women. Saturn is a Chamoru and Indian queer feminist and award-winning scholar-activist, and her work focuses on intersectional racial and gender equity, decoloniality and the neuroscience of emotions, prosociality, stress, trauma, healing and resilience.
