For her PhD, Sarah studied how antiviral factors in our cells can fight the HIV virus.

In this episode we talk about:

Her career path in science and leaving benchwork.

Advocacy around science issues.

Bystander intervention.

… and much more!

Two quotes stayed with me after the conversation:

"Critical thinking is being able to come into an issue and piece together for yourself what you can use based on the available information."

"We should be able to bring our whole authentic selves to work, and that should be considered professionalism."

I hope y'all feel as reinvigorated as I did after this conversation!
