Dr. Robert Langer is the most cited engineer in history, a co-founder of Moderna, and is known as the father of tissue engineering; without him, Chinmay wouldn't have a major! While the list of his accomplishments goes on and on, this episode dives into what his accomplishments mean, what the future of Biomedical Engineering looks like, and who Dr. Robert Langer truly is as a person.

This is our third episode in collaboration with JP Flores, host of From where does it STEM?

In this episode, we are interviewing Dr. Eric Green, Director of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) and instrumental figure in the genome project. Join us as we discuss the latest in human genomics, Dr. Green's fascination with mentorship, and more.

Join us as we dive into Dr. Karolin Luger's work and her research as the scientist who discovered the nucleosome and is continuing to pioneer groundbreaking work in her lab at CU Boulder. This episode was hosted in collaboration with another UNC student (although this one is a PhD candidate), JP Flores, host of From Where Does it STEM?, a podcast focusing on DEI in science.

Join us as we interview the Vice Chancellor of Research at UNC, Dr. Penny Gordon-Larsen. In this episode, we are examining research through the lens of Dr. Gordon-Larsen, a policymaker responsible for managing over a billion dollars in funding, as well as her research as an internationally renowned obesity and cardiovascular researcher.
