The first eight episodes of Socializing with Scientists Season 1 have been a blast! Next Wednesday we'll publish another interview, but this week we're taking a little breather. I wanted to talk about what's coming up, to say thank you to the scientists who have spoken with me, and to tell the listeners who have been tuning in each week how much I appreciate you: There are so many other things you could be doing with your time, the fact that you're lending me your brains for an hour means so much!
There are two hidden scientist gems from the first part of Season 1 I want to highlight: Desirée Plata, the MIT environmental chemist, was a joy to speak with, and if you haven't had a chance to listen to her episode, please do so as fast as you can. She is smart and engaging, and you'll learn so much while feeling happy doing it.
Lauren Osborne is the New York City reproductive psychiatrist who studies the biological mechanisms underlying postpartum depression; she hopes to develop a blood test for it. She is a superwoman, getting into and going to medical school, and then beginning a prestigious career in research and medicine, while raising three kids. Listen to her episode if you want to feel inspired.
Finally, if you like the podcast, please share it with your friends, or leave a little review. If you know someone who is curious, who likes science, or who is a teacher and has students looking for a career path, send them our way! The more people who can hear from these amazing scientists, the better.
Thank you!
