Her Royal Science

In this episode, we speak with Angeline Dukes, an addiction neuroscientist exploring the long-term effects of adolescent nicotine and cannabinoid exposure at the University of California, Irvine. We first discuss the point at which she decided to pivot from medicine to neuroscience, realising she wanted nothing more than to teach and mentor the next generation of young scientists in the classroom. We also chat about her exciting new position at the University of Minnesota Medical School, where she will be an Assistant Professor in the Department of Neuroscience. Later in our conversation, we touch upon the lessons she has learnt while being President and Founder of Black In Neuro.
