Representation Matters: Dr. Andre Isaacs

In this episode, Dr. Zack Drum, a postdoc in my lab, and I interviewed Dr. Andre Isaacs. Andre is originally from Jamaica and moved to the US to attend College of the Holy Cross, where he received his BA in Chemistry. He then went on to pursue his PhD at the University of Pennsylvania and his postdoctoral training at University of California, Berkeley. Currently, he is an Associate Professor at College of the Holy Cross. We had a great conversation about how representation in your peers and mentors matters in science, being openly queer in these higher education / academic environments, and how we can make science more inclusive.
