Happy Pride Month, y'all and welcome to Week 1 of our MFQC Pride Summer Special! This week on the show we welcomed back Sky Cochrane (first on the show in S1:EP10) as a guest host! Sky chatted with Avery Tytla (she/her), a PhD candidate in the Francis lab at the University of California, Berkeley. They discussed Avery's journey coming out, breaking down the barriers of access to academia, Avery's career trajectory, and much more! This episode is benefitting the LGBT Center of Raleigh (chosen by our guest host, Sky) and the GoFundMe fundraiser is LIVE and will close 6/30. To connect with Sky and Avery you can follow them on Twitter @SkyCochrane1 and @avtytla (and us @MFQCPod). We'll see y'all next time and remember that Black Lives Matter today and everyday.
