Thank you for this video! I'm on a crazy journey to become an engineer myself and I've wanted to quit many times, hardest thing I've ever set out to do. Thanks for being an inspiration
Wonderful! Linda. I was a research scientist (microbiology) at a pharmaceutical company. I always had difficulty explaining to my mother or her friends (not scientists) what I did for a living. I wish I could have made a video like yours to explain my job. Maybe for my next life :-)
Makes one imagine having a job that doesn't make you want to off yourself everyday actually can exist, something that can make you interested in life and proud to speak to people.
Hi Linda, I have some 8mm video of my grandfather and his brother testing out an emergency door that they built for Fermilab. It's a huge door that weighs tons but can be opened easily because it floats on oil pressure. I'm just going off what I've heard as a kid so IDK exactly. Would that be something you guys would be interested in having?
I enjoyed and appreciate this video. The scientific community has always been a male dominated field. If we, as a species, are to truly tap into our potential and harness it for future technological advancements, we must encourage females to pursue careers in the sciences. Females make up half the population and are a severely under-utilized resource that is fully capable of conducting brilliant research. I hope there are many more videos that highlight females who work in the sciences. they need to be made into rockstars so it really appeals to young women. Also, just as a point of order, the aspect of sexism within the scientific community really doesn't help with trying to recruit the best and brightest minds. So, perhaps some decorum and professionalism need to be observed with the notion of working with people of a different gender or gender-identity. in closing, Ms. Bagby, you are a role model for everyone, I appreciate you and the magnanimous work you do.
Yes they can! I'd like to think that a person can be inspired by someone else - REGARDLESS of that persons gender (or race, nationality, whatever...). At least that's the kind of world that I want to live in. :-)
Muhannad, I caught your sarcasm. however, by and large, I tend to agree more with VerdantNight here because there are already more than enough jokes about women in the sciences and it really detracts from the quality of the work by relegating anyone who such a joke could be about to the content of the joke without any merit toward their work. But thats just my .02c.

Well deserved Shout Out! Thank you for doing your part for science.

I hope you graduated with your degree and in your passion

I'd love to see more of these kinds of videos

Keep up the great work LB

Hey man sorry for asking this but could you upload the video to RUclips? Sorry for the hassle but it intrigued me

Thank you Dr. Bagby. You have inpsired me infinitely.
More of these!
I want to be just like her!
me too.
