  Surge in General: TAMU SURGe Student Panel 2026

  Sep 11, 202636 min

  In this episode of BGAB, Andie and Hussain chat with a group of young professionals who spent 10 weeks with different research groups at TAMU as part of the NSF SURGe program. All of the SURGe students are undergraduates interested in a future career related to biosciences. We pick their brains about their experiences with the program, their feelings about College Station and TAMU, and how they see the future of bioscience careers.

  Across the Ages: An Interview Series with Guests from the TAMU Genetics Summer Research Symposium

  Jul 25, 202613 min

  In this episode, Andrew interviews four guests: Garbrielle Poole, Alison Wuerful, Zach Adelman, and Clint Magill. Each of these scientists is at a different stage of their career: Gabrielle is undergraduate REU student, Alison is a graduate student pursuing a PhD, Zach is Principal Investigator and Program Chair in the midst of his career, and Clint is nearing retirement more than 50 years after earning his PhD. These four illustrate some of the differences in perspective across generations and career stages as we discuss what life is like for a career in biology and in research.
