On Episode 20 of Black in Science, I sat down with Dr. Pascale Guiton, who’s currently an Assistant Professor at California State University, East Bay. To open, Dr. Guiton recounts her childhood while growing up in the Ivory Coast before transitioning into her time as an undergraduate Biological Sciences major at Georgia State University. After discussing the work she did for her Ph.D from Washington University in St. Louis, Dr. Pascale shares her experience as a post-doc at Stanford University while studying Toxoplasma gondii. While describing the toxo research her lab currently investigates, Dr. Guiton expresses her feelings on the importance of being yourself, taking initiative and having good mentors.
