The Molecular Ecologist Podcast: A #NewPI chat about teaching, both before and after COVID

A new episode of The Molecular Ecologist Podcast is now out on Anchor.fm. On this episode, we’re taking our NewPI Chat conversations among early-career faculty to the podcast format. In this chat, Rob Denton, Stacy Krueger-Hadfield, and Jeremy Yoder discuss teaching: the transition from postdoc life to managing classrooms and curricula, juggling instruction time and research — and how all of this has changed while our campuses are locked down to help contain the COVID-19 pandemic.

You can listen right here on the blog, with the widget below:

To send us questions about life as new PIs, or suggest topics or guests for future chats, you can leave us a voice message from the podcast’s Anchor.fm page, hit us up on Twitter or Facebook, or email Jeremy.
