Erin Tranfield - A life through the lens of science

Erin Tranfield - A life through the lens of science

Länge: 35:12
Some careers follow a plan; Erin Tranfield’s did not. Now Head of the VIB BioImaging Core Ghent, she grew up on a cattle ranch in Canada, where a love for photography eventually transformed into a passion for microscopy and science. Her relentless curiosity took her to NASA and cutting-edge research labs across Europe. 
A self-proclaimed microscopy nerd, Erin talks about the similarities between imaging and art, the importance of innovation in microscopy, but also makes a plea for the humble light microscope. We dive into her experiences moving across countries, confronting imposter syndrome, handling the pressure to succeed, and why following what excites you is the best career strategy. 
Do you have an original career path in science or tips on dealing with imposter syndrome? Share them in the comments!

Beschreibung

Called to Science uncovers the untold stories of the people pushing the boundaries of life sciences. Hosted by science journalist Brad van Paridon, the podcast goes beyond the research to explore the passion, setbacks, and big questions that drive scientists forward.
The first season features in-depth conversations with researchers at VIB, covering topics from computational biology and microbiology to cancer research and imaging technologies. Each episode brings out the human side of how the scientific life can take unexpected turns, like moving from a cattle ranch to NASA or stumbling upon a new antibiotic in a student restaurant. Other guests open up about imposter syndrome, high-risk research, and learning to navigate failure as part of the process.
