Description

“Acknowledgement is the Path to Cure” is a conversation with a Southeast Asian assistant faculty member at a large research university in the United States. She describes an incident that jeopardised her future in academia; how social expectations around gender, relationships, and career continue to affect her personal life; and how her enduring passion for physics has kept her in the field.  Hosted on Acast.

Voices in Physics is a series of interviews with physicists. In each episode we’ll discuss the culture in physics and how it affects them. We’ll be exploring what inspired them to pursue careers in physics, what discouraged them, and who they turned to for support. The people I spoke to are from a diverse range of backgrounds and at different stages of their careers, from undergraduates to tenured professors.Conversations like these happen all the time but are rarely heard by the people with the power to change things. So, if you’re a member of the physics or wider STEM community, I hope that as you listen to their stories, you’ll consider how we can help change the culture in physics for the better.
