Description

In August's episode we were fortunate enough to chat to wildlife biologist Janice Vaz! Janice shares with us her groundbreaking research in big cat animal welfare, as well the hardships & hurdles that she had to navigate through her PhD, particularly with moving to a new country during COVID-19. We hear all about the differences she has noticed in research between her home country in India, compared to Australia where she completed her PhD.  Janice has done a significant amount of work in the science communication spaces, through her not-for-profit organisation "Project Monkey", as well as her fantastic artwork (which we have shared on our social media pages). Janice was an absolute pleasure to have on the podcast, and was very open and vulnerable with us about the challenges that she has faced in her career so far- we hope that you get as much out of this chat as we did! You can connect with Janice through her Instagram @janice_vaz_
