Ethan Block is an Associate Professor of Biology at Chatham University. Between his early morning gym sessions, teaching, research, mentoring, rooting for the Penguins, and taking care of his family, Ethan has also plenty of time to be cool. Respected as one of the most passionate, understanding, and motivated professors, Ethan finds a way to inspire most Chatham science students through his Neuroscience and Cellular & Molecular Biology classes. In this episode we discuss life in academia, The Masculinity Project, privilege in STEM, and the perfect roasted chicken.
