Navigating Academia as a Queer & Trans Person w/ Schuyler Borges
Manage episode 306159911 series 2889898
This week, we will be joined by Schuyler Borges (they/them). Schuyler is a 4th year PhD student in Astronomy and Planetary Science at Northern Arizona University. Their dissertation research focuses on astrobiology; specifically, they study Antarctic microbial mats as potential analogs for life on Mars and exoplanets. Over the course of their graduate experience, Schuyler has felt very alone as a result of their identities and values. As a result, they’ve been actively involved in numerous efforts to provide a support network for those with marginalized identities in STEMM including Thrive Lifeline, a trans-owned grass-roots crisis hotline staffed by and for marginalized people in STEMM.
