065: [Women in STEM] Mahirap Bang Maging Isang Babaeng Scientist? (with Pamela Tolentino)

This episode of Ask Theory was made possible by the British Council in the Philippines, in support of their Women in STEM Scholarship program. Pamela Louise Tolentino is a researcher whose specialty lies in the roles of different watershed characteristics and hydrometeorological factors on river discharge. She handles projects involving the fields of hydrogeology, water quality, water resources, climate change, geohazard mapping and geology. She is currently doing her PhD in Earth Sciences at the University of Glasgow in the U.K. We talked about Pamela’s research about rivers in the Philippines, the Philippines’ problems with water, the issues that Pamela aims to address, the power and potential of data when properly handled and interpreted, the joys and challenges of being a female scientist, and more.
