What drives a scientist to keep going after research setbacks? What is it like to discover a new antibiotic by accident, or to move from a cattle ranch to a career in science?
Called to Science shares real stories from the world of life sciences research. Hosted by science journalist Brad van Paridon, the podcast goes behind the science to explore the people, passion, and persistence behind breakthroughs in areas like computational biology, neuroscience, microbiology, and cancer research.
Each episode features VIB scientists reflecting on the human side of science careers: how they face failure, fight imposter syndrome, and stay curious in the face of uncertainty. Whether you are a student, researcher, or just science-curious, these scientist stories will show how discovery often begins with the unexpected.
