In this episode, Jan welcomes Daniela Portella Sampaio for a conversation about her scientific journey through Antarctica and current research on Antarctic governance. We particularly focus on Antarctic intersectionality research. Daniela also shares memorable moments from the field (like finding a historic shoe) and tips on how to successfully score grants - she scored 2 (!!) Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowships! Tune in for a return to our regular interview-style format.
