Customer Reviews
Great podcast!
This show is so amazing! I highly recommend for anyone pursuing a degree in biology, biochemistry, or any other life science program. Although the podcast is geared towards students in life sciences, it’s really great for anyone looking to move away from research-based careers. I love how the hosts bring in new guests every week and really show you what kind of work is out there for science grads!! Would give 6 stars if possible!
