Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with career scientist, researcher, and author Shivani Malik. Born and raised in India, she moved to the United States to pursue her PhD, completing her training at Stanford University and the University of California, San Francisco. Her debut novel, The Sky is Different Here, explores the powerful dynamics of the mother-daughter relationship, self-belief, and navigating the intensity of academic life in the late 2000s. Blending her personal journey with storytelling, Shivani offers a unique perspective shaped by both science and creativity. Today, she leads a team of researchers at an oncology-focused biotech company in San Diego, where she lives with her husband and their dog. This is a thoughtful conversation about science, storytelling, identity, and the pursuit of purpose. 👉 More Shivani:https://www.linkedin.com/in/shivamalik/https://www.amazon.com/Sky-Different-Here-Novel/dp/B0FD421DBZ/ https://www.simonandschuster.com/authors/Shivani-Malik/244834360  For More Famous Interviews: Subscribe via Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgi6GpDDDrc_PgOzaERGbLQ Subscribe via iTunes/Apple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/famous-interviews-with-joe-dimino/id1660256991Subscribe via Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/7j92QDS13LXgajPt80X2dh The Home of Famous Interviews: http://famousinterviewswithjoedimino.blogspot.com/ Contribute to Famous Interviews via PayPal:                    https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_b Learn more about your ad choices.
