Hi everyone,
As we continue our shared mission of science communication, I've just released the second episode of "Geoscientists' Voices." To help this project gain momentum, I would be incredibly grateful if you could take these three quick actions:
-
1. Watch: Check out the interview here: https://youtu.be/VH2H53KL3v4?si=HG5Wfj6y7Zw3N6hR
-
2. Subscribe: Hit the subscribe button to help the channel grow in the algorithm.
-
3. Share: If you find the "non-linear career" discussion valuable, please share the link with your network or students!
Why this episode fits our mission: In this episode, I interview Dr. Jeremy Gabriel (McMaster University). Jeremy's path is the definition of "non-linear"-he actually stepped out of science to work as a professional mortgage broker before returning to his PhD and eventually becoming a Zuckerman Scholar in Israel.
We dive into:
-
The "Twist": Why corporate sales and project management skills are actually game-changers for researchers.
-
Deep Time: How a perspective on Cretaceous climatic variations helps communicate the reality of modern climate change.
-
The Human Element: Dealing with the anxiety of "leaving the system" and successfully pivoting back.
Thank you all for the constant support and inspiration. I'm happy to return the favor-if you have a SciComm project you'd like me to engage with, please drop the link in the comments!
Best,
Aleksei
