Earth on the Rocks

The defense rests (congratulations Doctor!) - with Dr. Danielle Peltier

12 Dec 2025

Description

Joining us today is the newly minted Dr. Danielle (Danny) Peltier, a paleontologist or geologist/paleoanthropologist that studies human evolution through time. Ever wondered what it means when someone says they've defended their PhD? Listen to hear about everything that leads up to and then what happens during that process, culminating in becoming a doctor, along with learning about the volcanic connections to human evolution, working at White Sands National Park through Geoscientists in the Park (including why the sand stays so cool), the transition from undergraduate to graduate school, and tips for cooking for one or meal prep.
