PEERing into Science

PEERing into Science is a podcast that highlights the stories and career journeys of PEER scientists. Now what's a PEER scientist? Well, PEER stands for People Excluded due to their Ethnicity or Race, and why would they have interesting journeys in science? Well, these professionals have carved a space for themselves in a system that was truly not built for them. And regardless of their identity and their scientific interests, their stories hold wisdom that we all can learn from. This podcast isn't about the science, but the scientist. So let's PEER into science. New episodes out monthly!
