This was a fun conversation covering #TissueChips, astronauts, being an #EssexGirl far from home, and living life with no regrets. Thanks for the invite to take part in a fantastic series, and it was an honour to close out the inaugural series @AinscoughAlex!

As with all #MakingAScientist episodes, hear all about Lucie’s career path, how she made the decisions she did and her incredible advice for early career researchers. I know I say this every time, but this really is a truly brilliant episode! An amazing way to end the series!!
