Discovery Dialogues S2E1: Start Early and Prepare from the Heart

In this episode of Discovery Dialogues, Dr. Hannah Richards a recent graduate in the chemistry department and Vanderbilt’s first Schmidt Science Fellow, shares how a last-minute campus visit turned into a decision she "just knew" was right. She discusses her work as an electroanalytical chemist developing a sensor platform that detects inflammatory markers linked to preterm birth. Hannah discusses looking ahead to her Schmidt Fellowship, which will take her from the lab bench to the beach studying fungal infections in endangered leatherback sea turtles, and offers advice for trainees on believing in themselves, applying for every opportunity, and giving research the time it needs.
