Welcome to the *inaugural* episode of My Fave Queer Chemist (MFQC for short), a podcast celebrating the excellence of LGBTQ+ chemists everywhere. Join Bec Roldan (they/them) and Geraldo Duran-Camacho (he/him) as they embark on the journey of meeting, interviewing, and laughing with queer chemists from all walks of life, all while trying to survive their first year of graduate school. Buckle in, it's going to be a wild ride! Follow us on Twitter at @MFQCPod.
