The PAM Talks is an interview series showcasing the voices of researchers who belong to traditionally underrepresented groups in Physics and Astronomy, specifically highlighting women and other gender minorities. If you were to ask a random person from the public, they would likely struggle to name even one woman scientist, let alone a physicist. Our mission is to address this lack of representation, increasing awareness among our audience about the diverse spectrum of researchers in physics and astronomy. We provide a platform for these researchers to share their work and personal experiences, fostering inclusivity and breaking down barriers in the scientific community.
We gratefully acknowledge support from the University of Calgary Graduate Student Association Quality Money grant program.

1.5.2 Dr. Jo-Anne Brown - Envisioning a new model for the Galactic magnetic field
Dr. Jo-Anne Brown is a Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Calgary. Dr. Brown's radio astronomy research focuses on measuring the Galactic magnetic field. Over the years, she has supervised numerous graduate students, including Dr. Anna Ordog, who was featured in episode 1.0.1 of The PAM Talks podcast. In this episode, Dr. Brown joins Jia Yi Ren, an undergraduate student in astrophysics, to discuss shifting career paths and exploring new ideas about the 3D configuration of the magnetic field in our Milky Way Galaxy.
The PAM Talks team is working hard on preparing a fantastic line-up of Season 2 interviews. While you wait, you can listen to these "Season 1.5" epsiodes, which will be audio versions of our original PAM Talks youtube series.
Host: Jia Yi Ren, undergraduate student, University of Calgary
Produced and edited by: Dr. Davor Curic, University of Calgary
