Synopsis

Welcome to Women in Science, a special series in honor of Women’s History Month. Join us each Monday in March (and April - thanks, COVID-19!) as we hear from women making great strides in their fields, from reproductive health justice to animal evolution. We’ll learn about the challenges they’ve faced in their journeys, explore the importance of representation, and see how women on the forefront of science and medicine lift up others and build toward a better tomorrow. In the fourth episode of this series, we’re featuring Dr. Flora Rutaganira, a postdoctoral researcher in Dr. Nicole King’s lab at UC Berkeley. In our conversation, we talk about the beauty (and cuteness!) of choanoflagellates, finding community and direction as an early-career researcher, and how universities can support marginalized scientists.
