A review by mirzapan
The Autobiography of a Transgender Scientist by Ben Barres

informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

This book may not be perfect, but it came to me at a time when I needed it. As a nonbinary person in academia, and one who works on astrocytes funny enough, this book not only helped my academic work with helpful citations but gave me hope that mentors like Ben do exist in this minefield of a profession. If I am successful at becoming a professor, that is what I want to be.
