Continuing 30 years of experience with stories within and beyond the academic realm, this free podcast will take these perspectives and philosophies—and pull them, along with you, the student, the researcher, the innovator, the educator—into the sunlight. Join us for some first-hand experiences, insights from inside and outside academia, and perspectives that are aimed at redefining the conventions of academia and your training. Topics will often hover within and around the science and technology realm but will be applicable to all academics—whether those days are complete or ongoing for you—with the aim of helping to provide you a redirected compass and help orient you and stabilize you on your journey forward, or to grow and recover from those times past.
