Applying Fundamental Physics to Real World Problems with Matt Garrett
If you are under the impression that the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) is only useful for fundamental physics experiments and doesn’t have any capacity for real-world applications, think again!
Today’s guest, Matt Garrett, is the Director of Technology Transfer and Private Partnerships at SLAC (one of 17 Department of Energy National Laboratories). In today’s episode, Matt explains how SLAC’s linear particle accelerator contributes to science and the enormous potential for societal impact that lies in the lessons that have been learned through its development.
We also discuss the programs at SLAC that are focused on developing entrepreneurial capabilities, Matt’s mission to enhance diversity, equity, and inclusion in the technology transfer community, the importance of place-based innovation, and more!
