Description

TV and movies can make scientists look like old dudes in dorky ties. Sprouting in STEM is hoping to fix that. Budding physicists Audrey and Matt will be hosting casual discussions about the trials and tribulations of early careers in science, in order to make science more accessible to everyone, dorky tie or no. New episodes every week!
