We chat to Dr Katie Seaborn, a postdoctoral scientist at the RIKEN Centre for Advanced Intelligence Project in Tokyo. Katie is currently researching into how elderly people interact and have conversations with robots that help prevent the onset of dementia. Katie is an expert in designing interactive games and user experience. Growing up, she enjoyed drawing and illustration, but once the internet took off she discovered her love of digital design.
We talk to Dr Ilana Wisby, CEO of Oxford Quantum Circuits, a spin-out company from the University of Oxford building and designing quantum computers. Ilana's path to the quantum realm was not exactly linear. As an accomplished pianist and flautist, Ilana had aspirations to study music but decided to study a Physics undergraduate degree with a Minor in Music at Royal Holloway University. She then pursued a PhD in Quantum Physics and subsequently landed herself working in the start-up world.
