Dr. Marta Vicente is joining us

Marta Vicente Crespo is also joining the team!! She will be part of the faculty teaching the course, and will be teaching assistant, lab-maid and co-blogger when needed. Marta did her undergrad and PhD at the University of Valencia. She was a visiting PhD student and a postdoc in the lab of Dr. Palacios and through those two degrees of separation got involved in our project. She is really excited about the possibility of contributing to and learning from this experience. She spent the last two years working as a postdoc at the University of California San Diego, where she has been very involved in initiatives to bridge the sciences and the social sciences at the undergraduate level and is now in love with the idea of using “dialogue” as a tool to educate better scientists that are also more socially involved
