On this episode of the podcast, I talk to my friend, Clare Kercher, about her job as a Biological Engineer at Auragent Bioscience in St Louis. We go in-depth about her research on fluorescent detection of small analytes, her published scientific paper on using pupil dilation for early detection of autism, the importance of good mentors in the S.T.E.M fields, programs for underprivileged minority high school students to do scientific research at local universities, and so much more!
