This week we serve up a two-part episode. Part one, we sat down with Dean Turner and Cathy Carr, leaders in the UF/IFAS College of Agricultural and Life Sciences to discuss the incredible range of fascinating careers in the food industry. (Spoiler alert: It does not always involve a farm...or even being outside!)
Later, we chat with Hope Hersh - a UF/IFAS graduate student with a research project that is out of this world...and tastes GREAT!
