eLife Starts a New Podcast Highlighting Scientists From Diverse Backgrounds
eLife launched Community Voices, a new podcast that complements its established podcast on recent research by “shin[ing] a light on the people behind the research. Each [bi-monthly] episode will consist of interviews with academics from all walks of life, as they provide insights into their journeys that have shaped their careers.” The first episode—featuring Emmanuel Boakye, “an eLife Community Ambassador who launched the African Reproducibility Network (AREN) to equip African researchers with the necessary tools to dive into the global open science arena”—is available now. Anyone can listen on the eLife site or via Podbean; eLife plans to expand to other podcast platforms soon.“It is our hope that the podcast will be a source of inspiration and assurance for the wider research community, showing people that they are not alone in their experiences even though they may come from very different backgrounds, and even possibly helping them find support,” says Godwyns Onwuchekwa, eLife’s head of communities. For more information, read the press release.
