I chat with the amazing Nicole Schroeder, a PhD candidate at the University of Virginia, about her incredible collective. We also discuss the importance of representation of disabled academics in tenure and high-level positions in the academy.

Dr Nicoletta Fossati: consultant anaesthetist and honourary reader, St. George's University of London.

A podcast aimed at disabled, chronically ill and/or neurodivergent &nbsp; students and early career researchers. I'll be chatting with academics and students from different career stages about how they thrive in academia and disability. We'll discuss institutional and personal challenges, and hopefully provide some insights on how to cope with these.
