Listen Later

In each episode of this new podcast, we meet the instructors behind one of MIT’s most interesting courses, from nuclear physics to film appreciation to piloting small aircraft. The instructors open up to us about the passions that drive their cutting-edge research and innovative teaching, sharing stories that are candid, funny, serious, personal⁠, and full of insights. Listening in on these conversations is like being right here with us in person under the MIT dome, talking with your favorite professors.

Her hobbies include doing art projects with her preschool-aged daughter, spending time with her family in India, and experiencing gorgeous public architecture.
