    Bio bios' first, and possibly only, summer episode features a scientist who was very dear to me, to our colleagues at the University of Memphis, and far beyond, Dr. Judy Cole. It's rare to find someone who can speak with so much insight and curiosity on so many topics and Judy definitely showed that here. I'm so grateful that Jaime Sabel suggested bringing Judy on the show and so grateful to hear another dose of her wisdom and humor. Thank you, Judy. We miss you.

    This week I speak with Dr. Cissy Ballen from Auburn University about her research in biology education, the importance of mentors, and "the hidden curriculum." There are some really valuable nuggets (that particular word came up a surprising amount!), especially for undergrads interested in future paths in biology.

    This week I talk about forests, salt, community ecology, and way more with Dr. Natalie Clay. Oh, and we may geek out about undergraduate research and Costa Rica a little too.
