Episode 10 - SciArt And Design With Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya

In our tenth episode (the last of 2017!) we discuss gender bias in recommendation letters and go over some tips to help you (or your supervisor) check inherent bias and write an awesome letter. We learn about Hedy Lamarr, Hollywood star and amazing inventor. We interview the wonderful Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya! She created Beyond Curie and Atomic by Design, and talks about her journey to design through science and her hopes for the future. Finally, we highlight some awesome initiatives that mix art and science.
And, since we are going away for a little, we thought we would leave you with some podcast recommendations! Enjoy and happy new year!
