Episode Synopsis "Interview with a Biologist: Erica the Physician's Assistant"

I interviewed Erica Sutton (who also happens to be my sister) about her career as a Physician's Assistant.  In this episode, Erica told us about what a PA does, how they help people, and answered some questions about what a virus like COVID-19 does to your body and how people like her help us stay healthy!   Erica's favorite organism is a Tulip Tree.  It's scientific name is Liriodendron tulipifera. (Note that this scientific name, as well as the following one, should be italicized, but does not show that way in all formats) Erica is a human and works mainly with humans, and the scientific name of a human is Homo sapien.
