Liz interviews Noa, an 18‑year‑old evolutionary biologist and Stanford admit, about her path into science, the mentors who shaped her, and how curiosity and courage drive her work.
Noa explains comparative biology with vivid examples (giraffes, guppies), describes her talk "Guppies in the Boardroom," and shows how she connects research with activism, fundraising for the Pad Project.
The episode also shares personal details—family, reptiles, favorite moments—and Noa’s advice to young people: stay curious, optimistic, and pursue your passions.
