The Faculty Factory Podcast is pleased to welcome back Donna Vogel, MD, PhD, this week for a deeply informative chat about networking in a virtual setting. While today’s conversation is heavily focused on virtual networking, Dr. Vogel presents excellent networking advice that can be applied to any environment.

Dr. Vogel is a longtime and beloved contributor to the Faculty Factory. She served as Director in the Professional Development Office with Johns Hopkins Medicine and was Program Director of the Reproductive Medicine grant portfolio at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Dr. Vogel, a former Jeopardy! champion, never ceases to disappoint with her vast knowledge and wisdom. (For the record, Dr. Vogel was a four-day Jeopardy! winner and Tournament of Champions semifinalist.)

You’ll want to tune in to today’s show to hear about the “informational interview” networking technique. As Dr. Vogel explained it, it’s a way to open conversations. It can be a simple as messaging a colleague on LinkedIn to ask what it’s like to work in the government or at a specific institution.

This is the 8th time Dr. Vogel has joined us. We are grateful for her contributions to our community. Here are her previous episodes:
