In this inaugural episode of SciChronicles, we feature two amazing storytellers who tell us of their journeys in accepting and understanding their identities in science and how their experiences have impacted their work and personal lives. Our first storyteller, Olivia Davis, recently graduated from ASU with her PhD in Biology and Society and is now working as a postdoc studying mental health in graduate school. Olivia shares her own mental health journey in graduate school and how her struggles have inspired her postdoctoral research. The second story is from Arvind Varsani, a molecular virologist and professor at the ASU School of Life Sciences whose work spans multiple ecosystems and species. Arvind tells us how his identity has shaped his experiences living and working all around the world and how these experiences have taught him resilience. If you have not already, please consider subscribing so you do not miss future episodes.
