Immunologically illuminating behaviour and shattering glass ceilings with Zuri Sullivan (Harvard)
In this episode, I converse with Zuri Sullivan, an HHMI Hanna H. Gray Postdoctoral Fellow in Prof. Catherine Dulac’s lab at Harvard University. Zuri earned an AB in Molecular and Cellular Biology from Harvard and then pursued her interests in global health and host-microbe interactions as a Fulbright Scholar at the KwaZulu-Natal Research Institute for Tuberculosis and HIV in Durban, South Africa. Wanting to delve deeper into the biology of host defense, Zuri earned a PhD in Immunobiology as an NSF Graduate Research Fellow at Yale University under the auspice of Prof. Ruslan Medzhitov.
Zuri is fascinated by interactions between the immune and nervous systems, passionate about sharing science with the public, and dedicated to increasing the representation of women and people of color in STEM. We indulge in a fantastic conversation on her stellar journey in science; brilliant research at the intersection of immunology and neuroscience; battling the ubiquitous imposter syndrome; wonderful mentors who've guided and inspired her; rooting out inequities in science and society; her passionate outreach and communication to inspire future generations to pursue science; her eclectic reading list; and many more things!!
