We all know that the journey to getting your Ph.D. can be arduous and often non-linear, but what happens after you’ve received your degree? What if the traditional academic path doesn’t turn out to be precisely what you want to do? Today, we welcome to the podcast Dr. Fatu Badiane Markey; a science programs officer at the Rita Allen Foundation and co-host of the We Love Science podcast. Before transitioning into a career in science communications and non-profit foundation grant-making, she received her Ph.D. in molecular biology at Rutgers University in Newark. In this episode, she takes us along on her educational journey leading to her application for doctoral programs, we discuss the pros and cons of working with a brand-new professor and PI in her doctoral degree and how she ultimately realized she did not want to run her own lab as a scientist. If you want to hear about how a last-minute application to a job turned into a fulfilling non-academic career, and if you are interested in transitioning from a science doctorate to a non-research or teaching career, then be sure not to miss out on this episode of The Cohort Sistas Podcast!
