  • Structural Biologist

    This podcast has some excellent advice for graduate students studying life science disciplines, or any science discipline honestly. I have followed Jen Polk on Twitter for years and found her episode particularly helpful, as she goes through steps to help listeners work out what they really need and want in their future career and life. It helped me to realize that I don’t have to feel guilty about not continuing on in academia!
