Episode Synopsis

Join us for this fantastic conversation with recent Ph.D. grad and alum Dr. Eric Cooks, who currently has a post-doctoral fellowship with the College of  Journalism and Communication at the University of Florida. Eric will be the most recent C&IS alum (August 2020) for this season, but that doesn't mean he hasn't gone on to do very exciting things with his work with Dr. Janice Kreiger at the STEM Center. Eric tells us the story of how he thought he might be a pro basketball player and then had to come up with a new plan when that didn't work out (this isn't the first time we have heard "pro athlete" in the what you thought you'd be question!) Eric also tells us a little more about why he wasn't even sure he'd go on to get a Ph.D. and how his uncertainties are experiences many of us can relate to.  We learn more about what health disparities means in this conversation, and we learn that doing research in clinical trials doesn't require an MD!  Join us for this very fun conversation with Dr. Eric Cooks!
