This podcast has become one of my main ways to learn about #interesting questions in #neuroscience πŸ€“. I also really like how most profiles are so different from each other and different people’s journeys are!

A great interview of Eve, who is a remarkable person;
a deep commitment to the pursuit of truth and scientific integrity, passion about mentorship of the next generation of scientists, and advice that's always direct, unabashed and insightful!

Here's something else about Eve. She's busy. But if I call her or walk into her office with any problem - personal or professional - she drops everything to talk. Her unwavering support has been invaluable. Not to mention that she also lets me borrow from her giant collection of multicolored shoes!

So grateful to have @storiesofwin.bsky.social's @mfranch.bsky.social interview me & Sheila Steiner for putting together this write up! I had really fun talking about my science journey. I want to note that this journey had a little help from multiple NIH-diversity programs (MARC, F31, & MOSAIC).
