If you are considering starting a career in science, I think this episode might just be right for you! If you are not considering a career in science, give it a lesson, you will hear a few things that PhDs have to go through during their studies as well as why it might be a good idea considering that decision. 

The article we discuss today refers to various changes that are happening in the dental industry and that will hopefully make your visits to the dentist a lot less stressful.

This is Akram and thank you for listening to the ScienDist podcast. In this podcast, I will be sharing stories from people who are either scientists or have jobs that are related to science. We won't just hear the success stories but we will be diving into the difficulties that they had and how did they manage to overcome the obstacles that they faced. Life for scientists and especially PhDs students can be quite difficult and there are might be some times when it feels like you are drowning and there is no way out so I would like to shed some light on that by sharing the tips and tools that helped me and other people I know graduate and finish our Ph.D. programs and hopefully would help you too if you were in a similar situation. Last but not least I will be sharing some science news on a what I would like to call SciComm Sundays, there I will be sharing interesting science stories that I found on the internet. You can find related information about this podcast by finding me on Twitter @ScienDist I am looking forward to connecting with everyone and sharing helpful stories and interesting scientific information and news.

In this episode, I speak about changing the direction of the podcast. Unfortunately, I was not able to keep the episodes coming with the previous format however, I believe this change is going to be for the best and I hope and count on your support. Looking forward to remembering this as the start of a great thing that I built.
