Explore " microscopy" with insightful episodes like "Episode 5: Yifan gives advice on career choice, building a lab culture, and dealing with competition", "Episode 4: New challenges and Flexible Particles with Melody Campbell", "Episode 3: Developing as a Scientist in Cryo-EM, with Lisa Eshun-Wilson", "Episode 2 Pushing boundaries and improving cryo-EM accessibility with Mark Herzik" and "The Plunge Episode 1: Ellen Zhong" from podcasts like ""The Plunge", "The Plunge", "The Plunge", "The Plunge" and "The Plunge"" and more!
Mark joins Mimi, Mike, and Liz to talk about his experience challenging cryo-EM paradigms, namely lower size limits for protein samples and using 'screening' microscopes for high-end data collection. We also talk about experiences of first-generation academics and the hidden 'rules' of academia. We also talk about the future of cryo-EM in terms of improving accessibility and access to resources.
In this snippet from the “Stories from the NNI” podcast, Dr. Lisa Friedersdorf, Director of the NNCO, speaks with Scott VanEpps, Assistant Professor in the Departments of Emergency Medicine and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Michigan, about the specialized equipment that he uses to locate nanoparticles inside cells.

Sometimes you feel like you missed an opportunity, or didn’t make the best out of it, or sometimes you feel like life is unfair and doesn’t offer any attractive chance. Then you hear stories like Mireille Kamariza’s and your perspective changes.
This is classic Bringing Chemistry to Life episode, where an incredible personal story is intertwined with great science. Dr. Mireille Kamariza, junior fellow at the Society of Fellows at Harvard University, is driven by her personal experience growing up in war-torn Burundi. She was given the opportunity to move to and study in the U.S., rose to the challenge becoming an expert in biorthogonal chemistry and developed a technology for a highly reliable, yet simple and affordable, detection method for tuberculosis. Now Mireille, nominated as one of Fortune Magazine’s most powerful women, wants to give back and aims at addressing the TB global health crisis thanks to her technology.
While listening to Mireille’s personal story alone is well worth your time, make no mistake, there is great chemistry here. Another brilliant example of chemistry at the interface with biology, where some of the most exciting results in modern science come from.

About Your Host
Paolo Braiuca grew up in the North-East of Italy and holds a PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences from nearby esteemed University of Trieste, Italy. He developed expertise in biocatalysis during his years of post-doctoral research in Italy and the UK, where he co-founded a startup company. With this new venture, Paolo’s career shifted from R&D to business development, taking on roles in commercial, product management, and marketing. He has worked in the specialty chemicals, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical markets in Germany and the UK, where he presently resides.
He is currently the Director of Global Market Development in the Laboratory Chemicals Division at Thermo Fisher Scientific™ which put him in the host chair of the Bringing Chemistry to Life podcast. A busy father of four, in what little free time he has, you’ll find him inventing electronic devices with the help of his loyal 3D-printer and soldering iron. And if you ask him, he’ll call himself a “maker” at heart.
Today we are joined by Dr. Kristin Bunker, a senior scientist at RJ Lee Group, and Dr. Marit Meyer, from the NASA Glenn Research Center, to discuss the usage of microscopy to identify airborne particles in the cabin on the International Space Station. Analyzing the makeup of these particles and keeping the air particle free allows us to ensure safe, breathable air for our astronauts in orbit.

In this episode, “The Art of Life Science”, our host, Melissa Mahl talks with guests John Freiermuth and Stefan Gliech, both with Materion Optics Balzers, to learn how they enable their Life Science customers to develop technologies that detect disease, prevent illness and improve quality of life through advancements in microscopy and bio photonics.
Although there are not many jobs to be attended to in December there are a couple of important issues to be sorted. Making sure woodpecker damage doesn't occur it's important to get some protection on during this month.
I'm also thinking about repairs, renewal and replacement of equipment particularly my hive floors. I need to make up around 40 or more in total and have an idea for making up my own this Winter.
