Ph.D. in molecular biology that covers bad science while making good science accessible. This channel focuses mainly on pseudoscience surrounding the anti-vaccine movement and COVID misinformation.
I earned my B.S. in Biotechnology and Molecular Biology from Clarion University and my Ph.D. from Carnegie Mellon University. My Ph.D. research focused on how cells build ribosomes, the nano-machines in all of your cells that make protein. Specifically, I studied how cells make sure a certain part of the ribosome, the polypeptide exit tunnel, is made properly. If you want to know more, ask me about it some time!
