Marcia Pescador Jimenez, PhD on science writing in English and honeydew vs Mountain Dew - a podcast by Lisa Bodnar

Marcia Pescador Jimenez, PhD is currently a postdoc in Epidemiology at Harvard, and will be transitioning to assistant professor at Boston University. Her research focuses on spatial determinants of health through the lifecourse. Marcia is originally from Mexico City, and talks about challenges of writing in English and negotiating a job offer in the US. She tells me how she puts together cold emails to other researchers to ask for help, despite her imposter syndrome. We laugh a lot in this episode, including about confusion over honeydew vs. Mountain Dew, Jane the Virgin on loop, scented candles, high-waisted pants, and more!
