Episode 17: Finish Your First Year with Alex
Emily A. Shelby

Hello y’all! This week I interview Alex Morales, a first year PhD student in the Department of Entomology at UGA in Dr. Gaelen Burke’s lab.

Talking points include Alex’s research, what it’s like to be a baby graduate student, Alex’s research experiences, insect taxonomy class, why Dr. Joe McHugh is the best, and Alex’s experiences being a Latinx woman in STEM.

 

All things Alex:
