Ep 26: From Post doc to Assistant Professor - The Work
Manage episode 361759983 series 2920115
Today we are speaking with the wonderful Caroline Bartman, Ph.D. about her transition from post doctoral fellow at Princeton University to assistant professor at UPENN. Caroline currently studies cellular metabolism as a postdoc with the goal of understanding how and why metabolism differs in cancer cells compared to healthy cells. Overall, she has enjoyed her time as a postdoc and the opportunity to conduct independent work on interesting research. While the prospect of setting up her own lab in the near future is a little bit scary, she is looking forward to building a positive, supportive community where everyone feels they belong and can contribute to great science. The research focus of the Bartman Lab will be cells with extreme metabolism such as immune cells and cancer cells—an expansion of the focus of Caroline’s current research as a postdoc. As a woman in science, overall her experience has been very good, but there have been moments when Caroline has felt undervalued for what she brings to the table. As she establishes her own lab and advances in her career, Caroline wants to work towards addressing issues that negatively impact the participation women in science.
