In this episode, we speak with Dr Aya Osman, a behavioural neuroscientist exploring the role of the gut microbiome in neuropsychiatric disorders at Mount Sinai's Seaver Autism Center. We first speak about her family’s journey from Sudan to Saudi Arabia, and then onto the United Kingdom, also reflecting on her experiences as an undergraduate student and graduate trainee at Royal Holloway, University of London (RHUL) and the University of Surrey, respectively. Later in our conversation, we touch upon the differences in research culture within UK and US laboratories, and we discuss the savvy way Dr Osman pivoted into science communication when the pandemic first began.
