Extreme humidity events and how to better prepare for them: A NASA Postdoctoral Fellowship conversation

Casey Ivanovich, Ph.D., is a NASA Postdoctoral Fellow studying extreme humid heat, particularly focused on the dynamics of where events happen and why they happen across the globe. These dynamics are very different from extreme dry heat events, she says, and she is really trying to understand why they come about and how we can better prepare for them. Ivanovich talked about her research with guest host Bryan Campbell. Together they talk about the early days of Ivanovich's fellowship, how she became interested in science, the trajectory of her career, and much more.
