  • Summary

  • For many people, devotion to both science and faith is impossible. That's not the case for my Amherst College classmate, Stephen Jackson. Stephen earned a PhD in cellular and molecular biology and immunology; these days, he consults pharmaceutical companies, medical schools, and nursing homes. He also is an ordained minister and a man of deep faith. But that's not all. He teaches dance, runs a videography business, and he founded a not-for-profit that helps underprivileged communities learn about the basics of human health so that they can better advocate for themselves when seeking care. In this episode, you'll learn: The ways in which Stephen finds evidence of the divine in the natural world and in human society The parallels between the symbiotic, complex ways communities and genes both work How surviving bullying during his upbringing in South Central Los Angeles fortified his sense of self What prompted him to leave corporate America to start not-for-profit and for-profit enterprises The remarkable method he used to make his college decision The Amherst classmate he wants me to interview next For more on Stephen, visit: smjpec.com steviejdance.com
