Mental manipulation, working overtime, blackmailing??? Why do some PIs do this? Not this PI! This week I am joined by an amazing guest, Dr. Paul Marcogliese, who is a baby PI! From postdoc and research tech to now PI and content creator, Paul and I, respectively, catch up on our lives! We discuss the origins of Lab Shenanigans, recognizing yellow/red flags in lab, the struggles of being a new PI, and comparing the stipends in US and Canadian grad programs!Check out the Marcogliese Lab!https://www.marcoglieselab.com/Follow Dr. Marcogliese!Twitter: @PCMarcogliese Hosted on Acast.

Hiya, howdy, and hello! On this week's episode, I have the opportunity to catch up with one of the most influential people that motivated me to continue pursuing research... and that person is my former undergraduate lab manager! We talked about the lab's interview process, how this lab helped me get into the drag scene, what it's like to be heterophobic, and the big experimental booboo I made during my junior year in lab!Lab Shenanigans Merch:https://labshenanigansmerch.com/ Hosted on Acast.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope this new year is treating you well! And if it's not... it's okay because we have a first-year psychology PhD student on this week's episode. He's one of my good'ol undergrad friends, and we were in the same nonprofit org together! We talk about that organization (Camp Kesem), the road to becoming a licensed psychologist, our personalities in elementary school, buying gifts for our partners, prioritizing our mental health, and how we react when our identities are challenged! This was such a fun episode, and I hope y'all enjoy it!!Lab Shenanigans Merch:https://labshenanigansmerch.com/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
HAPPY DECEMBER! For this week's episode, I bring in my three amazing guests, Jake Trippett, Paula Gonzalez, and Manny Harb (but Manny doesn't come in till the very end because... there's some juicy drama about the undergrad org he's helping out). It has been a HOT minute since our former undergrad, Paula, left to study abroad in DEUTCHLAND, and Jake is currently applying and interviewing for MD/PhD programs! We catch up on life, buying the newest technology, what it's like living in Germany, the stress of applying to medical school, the necessity of a hype person in lab, and some drama brought to you by Manny. I HOPES YOU LIKEY THE EPPYSODE!!Lab Shenanigans Merch:https://labshenanigansmerch.com/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Thanksgiving is coming up (in the US!), and there's one thing I'm thankful for... and that's my guest, Ada McVean! This was such a fun episode, where I just gaslit (gaslighted??) my guest the entire episode! We talked about moving to the UK, using the patriarchy to our advantage, scientific writing, the importance of *TONGUE POP* CLICK CHEMISTRY, dungeons and dragons, and uhhh the side effects of our medications. Enjoy this episode and lemme know one thing YOU'RE thankful for!Follow Ada!Twitter: @AdaMcVeanIG: @theclumsyscientistLab Shenanigans Merch:https://labshenanigansmerch.com/ Hosted on Acast.

ALL ABOARD THE SCIENTEAFIC EXPRESS! The smart, intelligent, (and dashing) Dr. Noc is with us today! We talk about the moment we first met each other, how to appear taller in photos (and videos online hehehe), the anatomy of our knuckles, almost getting banned on Instagram, brands and companies taking advantage of new content creators, and sadly *le sigh* how my twitter account got hacked :((( I hope y'all enjoy this trip on the scienteafic express!Follow Dr. Morgan Noc!TikTok: @dr.nocIG: @dr.nocTwitter: @DrNocPhDLab Shenanigans Merch:https://labshenanigansmerch.com/ Hosted on Acast.

We also learned about how I joined this new lab, talked a bit about our supportive PI, healthy lab culture, gay slang, and how everyone in this lab hates gay people (*SIGH*).

Is it getting hot in here or is someone on Stier--I mean fire? My fabulous guest, Andrew Stier, is one of the few people I looked up to when I was an undergrad! He's literally a package deal: smart, witty, hilarious, and just a great guest to talk to. On this episode, we talk about imrpov theatre, shooting my shot (lolol), meeting other LGBTQ+ students in STEM, not coming out to my mom, how my undergrad lab manager got me into drag, and performing in drag for the first time!

Y'all know her. THE WOMAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND. She IS the moment!!! SAMANTHA YAMMINE! She's literally one of the best science communicators I look up to, and I'm glad I had a chance to speak with her on my little poddy. We talk a bit about science communication, family members not supporting the vaccine (BOOOO!), giving talks, Science is a Drag, fangirling over @onlinekyne, and learning that there are actual countries outside of the US (WHAT?!)!!Follow Sam!!IG: @science.samTwitter: @heysciencesamTikTok: @science.samFacebook: @science.samLab Shenanigans Merch:https://labshenanigansmerch.com/ Hosted on Acast.

SOOOOO this episode is a continuation of last week's episode my conversation with CAROL LAM was too long and juicy (and I know we love that). WE talk a bit about uhhhh the fun activities to do in San Antonio, the great food in Houston, her coworker skipping lab to find his lost wallet, and mustering up the courage to tell your PI about the certain situations in the lab. ENJOY YA LAB RATS!Follow Carol!!!IG: @carolklmTikTok: @carolklmLab Shenanigans Merch:https://labshenanigansmerch.com/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
I'M SUPER EXCITED because this week I get to talk to another Vietnamese scientist! And guess what, our upbringing and journies into research are surprisingly similar. We both felt a little lost after graduating college, so we started working as research techs! We also left our old labs due to... um personal reasons, and you get to hear some of our stories on this episode.

Happy May!! For this week's episode, I invited one of my good friends and former colleague, Veronica He, who's now a high school teacher!

Hey you beautiful-looking lab rats! I invited a bbb for this week's episode. What's a bbb? Blood brain barrier?? NOPE! It's an acronym my guest, Naomi Koh Belic, and I just made up, which stands for biracial, bimbo, biologist. We talk about some of their trauma and also finding a therapist to overcome some of our lab trauma! YAY THERAPY, WE LOVE IT!!!Follow Naomi!!!IG: @naomikohbelicTwitter: @naomikohbelicTikTok: @naomikohbelicLab Shenanigans Merch:https://labshenanigansmerch.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Medical school is hard and can even wear you down! This week my special two guests, Pickles (Tri Pham) and Guac (Raj Dalal), and I talk about the origins of our unique friendship and what we've all been doing for the past five years (wow, it's been that long!). Our conversation also dabbles into Camp Kesem (hey, I really love this non-profit org, okay?) and a little bit of our research projects.
