Description

This week, we will be joined by Stephanie Deppe, PhD (she/her). 

Stephanie is a science communicator with the Vera C Rubin Observatory! After completing her PhD in Physics from the University of Michigan in 2019, she decided to pursue a career in Science Communication and even though she had a lot of varied experiences in SciComm during her PhD, she still had a lot of career uncertainty going into post-PhD life. And to complicate things, the world went into a pandemic and Stephanie was also suffering from extreme burnout. You can find Stephanie on Instagram and Twitter (both @SpaceSciSteph) & also check out her work with the Vera C Rubin Observatory on Twitter (@VRubinObs) and Instagram (@rubin_observatory).

A full-text transcript of the episode is available via google doc!

Join us each Saturday at 3 pm EDT/12 pm PDT for the YouTube live stream where we talk about maintaining mental health and balance in grad school. The podcast episodes are posted the Tuesday after the live stream!
