William is currently a senior at Cornell University and is majoring in Entomology with interests to apply to medical school. Today we had a conversation about malaria, cockroaches, the complexity of the human brain, why we dream, how to network and reach out to potential mentors, why you won't "reinvent the wheel" (or at least not right away), and other topics.

Episode 4 (feat. William)

Life as a juvenile only seems to be going faster; you can't blame me for already feeling nostalgic for the present. In this podcast, you can listen in as my friends and I talk about science, philosophy,  art, college life, anything really. We probably know next to nothing about any of these things, but the important part is that nobody else does either. At the end of time, we can look back in awe at the strange creatures we once were, and the beautiful planet we once inhabited, despite the ultimate futility of morii (from the dictionary of obscure sorrows).
