Welcome to the Navigating Nano podcast where we explore the multidisciplinary world of nanotechnology with distinguished professors and researchers, join us as we sit down and talk about their cutting-edge research, career paths, and expert opinions on the expanding world of nanotechnology.

This week we sit down with Dr. Thomas Cundari professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of North Texas and co-director of the Center for

This week we sat down with Dr. Stephanie Vivod research chemical engineer from the NASA Glenn Research Center. She has a special interest in Polymer Aerogels for Aerospace applications. In this episode, we discuss infamous conspiracy theories surrounding space travel, and what it's like working for NASA, yes NASA is the place young engineers and scientists dream of working, as well as her research, please Join us as we, Navigate Nano.

Welcome to the Navigating Nano podcast where we explore the multidisciplinary world of nanotechnology with distinguished professors and researchers, join us as we sit down and talk about their cutting-edge research, career paths, and expert opinions on the expanding world of nanotechnology.

This week we sit down with Dr. Juan Vivero-Escoto professor in the Department of Chemistry at UNC Charlotte. He has a special interest In using Nanoparticles as a platform for innovative cancer treatments. In this episode, we talk about adjustment as an international student and the audience poses interesting questions about nanoparticle toxicity and cancer treatment to which Dr. Vivero- Escoto has equally interesting responses. Join us as we, navigate nano.

This week we sit down with Dr. Richard Mirin researcher at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. He is the group leader of the applied physics Division in Boulder, Colorado where his work involves using single photon technologies for applications ranging from biomedical imaging to quantum information. In this episode, we talk about how expansive single photon detection is, what skills are useful in Federally Funded Research and Development Centers similar to NIST as well as what to expect,   Join us as we, navigate nano.

This week we sit down with Dr. Kevin Welsher professor at the Duke University Department of Chemistry. His work focuses on making creative methods to capture fast 3D processes, notably introducing a new active feed-back 3D microscope called 3D-SMART. In this, we ask more personal questions on 3D-smart and its potential applications and we also discuss, knowing when to rest. Join us as we, Navigate Nano.

This week we have a special black history month episode where we sit down with Dr. Wumni Sadik of the New Jersey Institute of Technology and Dr. Barrett Caldwell of Purdue University. In this episode, we have a deep conversation about dealing with the hand you are dealt, the power of gradual and intentional mentorship, and navigating academia, while being responsible for newborn life and family. Please join us in celebrating Black History Month and Navigating, Nano

We hosted Dr. Marc R. Birtwistle. We had an interesting discussion on Big data modeling and simulations and their impact on cancer research, AI, and machine learning in academia, student mentorship, and much more. Watch out for the new episode on the platforms above.

Dr. Bonner of North Carolina State University joins MRS @ JSNN to discuss, how media affects nanotechnology research, responsibly and irresponsibly. Also, when we hear about nanotechnology, we usually hear of its innovations, what is it like in the world of nanotechnology with those who are concerned about "what could go wrong?"

Dr. Joseph C. Furgal is a professor of Chemistry at Bowling Green State University
