In this episode, you will hear a conversation with Anthony LaMantia, Ph.D., of the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at Virginia Tech. Like my previous guest, Dr. LaMantia started out intending to be a clinician, not a researcher. But he did become a scientist, albeit one with an interest in theatre and literature. Hear how those interests intersect in his love of metaphor for describing his science.
