Next Stop Neighbors: Dr. Kenny Gibbs

By David Kosub (Contributor)

What happens when you get two biomedical scientists together in the community? Well, the next edition of Next Stop Neighbors of course. Kenneth Gibbs, Ph.D., joins us today to tell us about his research career, how he encourages folks from all backgrounds to pursue a career in science, how he ended up in Riggs Park, and what’s on his reading list. We hope you enjoy the conversation. And, if there are any budding scientists out there, don’t hesitate to reach out to us!

Background on Next Stop Neighbors:

Welcome to Next Stop Neighbors where we get an opportunity to hear the voices behind the faces and places in Lamond-Riggs and the surrounding communities. Through this podcast series, you will meet some friendly neighbors and hear their perspectives on the community through civil, casual conversations. From the small business owner who just opened up, to the non-profit organization trying to make a difference, to the community leader describing their vision for the neighborhood, and the resident around the corner who has lived here for 50 years, we all have a story to tell. We welcome recommendations and, better yet, your own 10-minute interviews too!

  1. This is great. We live in the Riggs Park NMP neighborhood and my daughter is a freshman science major at NC A&T interested in research. We’d love to talk to you more. I’m sure your schedule is busy with 3 little ones and your church duties, but we’d love to talk to you more if you have time.
