Grad Scientists And Where To Find Them

Guests: Samuel Mathews (Chemical Engineering, McGill) and Saad Akhtar (Mining & Materials Engineering, McGill). In this episode, Sam and Saad tell us all about their research and discuss what it is like to work with supercomputers, running simulations instead of collecting empirical data. Another perspective on scientific research, with its fair share of tribulations. And to conclude the episode, an attempt at making some sort of student-life-inspired RPG, which turned out to be a lot of fun!   Audio Post-Production by Jacob Rosenberg. Artwork by Jenna McMullan. Intro music: Shimo - Dead Child [ 実際には悲しい歌 ]Excerpts from Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009) and Spider-Man (2002). This podcast was created in collaboration with PGSS at McGill.
