I think one small way we can start to improve diversity in STEM and academia, as well as to continue educating the public about science, is to make the “ivory tower” of academia more accessible.
As a result, I made a two minute video explaining the motivation for my recent publication on quantitative immunopeptidomics to better communicate to my family, friends, and beyond the work I have been doing throughout my PhD.
With the lab still shut down for COVID-19, I figured it was time to spend a little time on a passion project. Enjoy!
