In this week’s episode we are joined by the funny and multi-faceted co-founders of Let’s Get STEMulated, LLC, Ms. Brittany Bush and Ms. Sha’Kayla Nunez. These talented scientists are PhD candidates at Morehouse School of Medicine and have a research focus in neuroscience and cancer biology, respectively. Tune in as we learn about their “not-so-straight-forward-journey through-science” and how those lived experiences inspired them to create an organization whose purpose is, in part, to provide the next generation of young people with the building blocks, exposure, and opportunities needed to be successful in the STEM field. We also discuss topics including, challenges of entrepreneurship as a PhD student, extramural resources, imposter syndrome, the need for HBCUs, and providing a space of women and people of color to lend their much-needed perspective and excel. Don’t forget to check out their website to grab some of their cool merch and donate to their scholarship fund.
