#002 - Becoming a neonatologist-scientist to cure NEC

In this episode of “At the Bench”, we have the privilege of interviewing one of our hosts, Dr. Misty Good. Dr. Good discusses her amazing career journey from learning to pipette water at the beginning of her neonatology fellowship to becoming a multiple R01-funded investigator. She shares how she is inspired every day to improve the care of preterm infants with necrotizing enterocolitis through her research and how she decided to pursue a career as a physician-scientist due to the desire to improve the lives of all babies. Dr. Good’s story serves as an inspiration to early career faculty and those navigating the challenging but incredibly rewarding career path of a neonatologist-scientist.
