Memorable Quote: “I think one primary skill that I learned is self confidence. I think where I went to school for my first undergrad, it just created such a stigma that you had to be a certain type of person to, mainly a hard sciences type person, like lab research, bench research, that sort of thing, to be a researcher. And when I saw the effects that I could have with populations just with analyzing data, and making recommendations to public health agencies and both private and public. I thought I saw how much capability I have to affect the world and affect change.” Tim Schulz, St. Catherine University. Episode Transcript: Please visit Episode Transcript.
