What if we could test a new drug on a human heart or lung without ever putting a patient at risk?
Imagine a wound that hasn't healed for months, or even years. For millions of people dealing with chronic ulcers and "superbug" infections, this is a daily reality. In this chat, I’m breaking down why some wounds simply refuse to close and how we’re using non-equilibrium plasma (what I call "cold lightning") to fix them. We’re moving beyond traditional bandages and antibiotics to a future where physics does the healing. No jargon, no gatekeeping—just the science of how we’re solving one of medicine's most stubborn challenges. Have a question about plasma medicine or the future of healing? Let’s talk in the comments.
I recently received a great question from a viewer about how studying non-equilibrium plasmas—what I call "cold lightning"—changes the way I look at the world.
Let's talk about what happens to us when antibiotics stop working...
I’m Greg Fridman, a PhD in Bioengineering. For a long time, I’ve used this channel to review technical papers. Today, I’m changing things up.
I’m moving away from formal reviews to have a direct chat with you about the things that actually matter: the future of biotech, the fascinating physics of non-equilibrium plasmas (essentially "cold lightning"), and the unfiltered reality of life in science.
No jargon, no gatekeeping—just the science. ASK A QUESTION: I want to kick this off by answering your questions in the next video. Whether it’s about how plasma can heal the human body, the "Star Trek" tech becoming reality, or what it’s really like to get a PhD, drop your question in the comments below. I’ll be picking the most interesting one to deep-dive into next.
Share this with anyone curious about the intersection of physics and biology.
