ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Writing the acknowledgements, giving thanks to the people who have helped you along the way, is a surprisingly difficult part of completing your thesis. It’s also usually the last thing you do. In this episode, Simon talks about the difficulty and importance of knowing how to end a project, goes over his notes from a meeting with Toronto city councillor Joe Mihevc on why Canada should decriminalize all drugs, and talks about the importance for scientists to consider the science as a flawed but wonderful process. Finally, in this last episode of Do You Even Science, we end with our acknowledgements. Thank you to everyone who came on the show and to everyone who took the time in their busy lives to listen to us.
