Join us as we interview U.S. Geological Survey Research Geologist, Graham Lederer. Graham works for the agency in Reston, Virginia and studies the supply of materials important to society through material analysis and mineral resource assessment. Are you curious to know what critical elements are needed to use your iPhone touchscreen? Why Tungsten is used in the production of so many things? Where rare earth elements are found (clue: they aren't located right next to the cereal aisle at the grocery store) and why they are so important? Have you ever thought about working for a State or Federal agency? Tune in to find out some useful tips on how you can get your foot in the door. Graham is a wealth of knowledge and such a big "rockstar" the Rolling Stones should ask him to join the group.
