35. Astrophysics and Nonlinear Paths to Academia with Bill Smith

Update: 2021-09-21

Description

Why does the universe look the way it does, and how can we improve the demographic representation of STEM fields by supporting students with a nonlinear academic path? Bill Smith, a Fisk-Vanderbilt Master's-to-Ph.D. Bridge student, discusses his astrophysics research, the life experience that has influenced his career aspirations, and what he loves about the Master's-to-Ph.D. bridge program in which he is participating.
