Ethnobotanist - Dr. Rosalyn LaPier

from Spark Science · host Dr. Regina Barber DeGraaff - Western Washington University

This episode features the first of our interviews from our annual SACNAS National Convention show. This conference is the largest gathering of scientists of color in the nation and we had the honor of interviewing keynote speakers. Today's speaker is Dr. Rosalyn LaPier who is an award-winning writer studying the environmental and religious history of indigenous plants. The conversation veered from her background in physics, what are the stereotypes when it comes to indigenous scientists and ended with a great tip for all foodies. Please enjoy. This interview was recorded on location in Salk Lake City, Utah in October 2017
