New Women in STEM Careers Podcast: How to Turn STEM Curiosity into a Career

September 23, 2021
Researcher turning her curiosity about computers into a career

Abbott intern Fiona Harley, who is studying biology and engineering at UCLA, is the latest host on Shaping the Future of STEM. In episode 3, How to Turn STEM Curiosity Into a Career, Fiona speaks with Zaina Bawa-Mamudu, a microbiologist for Abbott’s Structural Heart division, about the importance of being curious and how mentors can provide guidance. 

Shaping the Future of STEM

We’ve partnered with Abbott to showcase its groundbreaking new podcast series: Shaping the Future of STEM. As a global health technology company that recruits world-class scientists and engineers, Abbott knows women are critical to solving the world’s biggest problems with smart, imaginative thinking. In each episode of this unique 6-part series, female Abbott interns interview female Abbott scientists and engineers at the top of their field. You’ll learn firsthand about topics such as:

  • Paths to STEM careers
  • Challenges women may face in STEM and how to overcome them
  • Why working in STEM is rewarding
  • Exploding science lab projects!
  • And much more!

This free, 6-part podcast series is perfect for STEM faculty and staff, career and guidance counselors and other student advisors, diversity and inclusion personnel, librarians, parents, students, and anyone else interested in changing the face of STEM and learning about the important role women will have in doing so.

We’ll share each new podcast in the series as it’s released throughout 2021—check back for new episodes! Or, you can listen, download, and subscribe to Abbott’s podcast channel on Apple Podcasts and/or Spotify. Learn more about Abbott.
