Show Notes

Deaf people are often excluded & misunderstood - particularly in the sciences. So we thought we'd take a look into the science of deafness & how the world treats deaf people in STEM. Joining us fro the chat is Elliot Douglas (theevolutionofelliot)! He may not be a sicentist but his deaf-initely worth paying attention to!
