Join The Graduates on Tuesday, October 10th @ 9AM as we speak with naturalist Prahlada Papper, PhD candidate in the Department of Integrative Biology.
Prahlada’s research focuses on the study of oak trees and species concepts in California. In the interview, Prahlada talks about his passion for field work, the intersection between science and spirituality, and how he made the choice between life at a traditional Chinese monastery and graduate school at UC Berkeley.
The Graduates, featuring graduate student research at Cal, is broadcast every other Tuesday on KALX. Past episodes are available to listen and download free on iTunes or online. The Graduates is hosted by Tesla Monson, postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Integrative Biology.
