This week on the pod, we chat with Irving Rettig (he/they) a 5th year graduate student in Theresa McCormick's lab at Portland State University. We discuss his incredible trans advocacy work in the American Chemical Society, their own department, & beyond. This work has manifested itself as leading the charge of trans-inclusive name change policies within academic publishing. You can follow Irv on Twitter @irv_does_chem and us @MFQCPod. We'll see y'all next time and remember that Black Lives Matter today and everyday.
