Listen Later

In this episode, I am joined by Yemi Adebiyi who is a postdoc at UCLA and will be starting a faculty position at UC-Merced in 2021. Yemi studies the impact of clouds and aerosols in climate. During our conversation we talked about his recent paper on underestimation of large dust particles in climate models and implications. Yemi also leads two important outreach activities, both aimed at increasing diversity and inclusion of people of color in academia and science. We had a very eye-opening exchange on the latter and more broadly on inclusion in academia, drawing some parallels between different kind of minorities. You can find more about Yemi's activities on his website: https://sites.google.com/view/aadebiyi/
