After a much-too-long break we are finally back with another episode. Thanks for being patient!
This episode is a fun one. We talk to Dr. Joanne Kamens, the executive director of Addgene.
Addgene is a non-profit repository that was created to help scientists share plasmids. When scientists publish research papers, they deposit their associated plasmids at Addgene. Then, when other scientists read the publication, they have easy access to the plasmids needed to conduct future experiments.
Joanne is also the founding member of the Massachusetts chapter of the Association for Women in Science (AWIS).
Join us for this chat about biology, research, technology and running the ‘Amazon for plasmids.’
