Nanovation

Jen Dionne from Stanford University is the first guest of 2017! We focus on optical metamaterials -- engineered materials whose nanoscale architecture enables exotic interactions with light. We explore technological possibilities ranging from improved drug manufacturing to computing with photons (instead of electrons). We also learn what motivates Jen, how she picks scientific problems, and whether or not she's a superhero.Show details: • Hosted and edited by Michael Filler (@michaelfiller) • Recorded on December 6, 2016 • Show notes are available at http://www.fillerlab.com/nanovation/archive/26 • Submit feedback at http://www.fillerlab.com/nanovation/feedback
