Neuromodulation And Bioelectronics - Part 2

If you love baseball (dare I say, CRICKET), you will love this episode that talks about intersection of data and sport.Jarrod Kimber is an award winning documentary film maker. From humble beginnings in Melbourne to becoming a well known sports writer and documentary film maker, Jarrod has constantly used data to point to the fallacies, assumptions and substantiate where the game should go.His writings are so data driven, yet simple to read that it comes across like a scientific paper – Aim, Hypothesis, Methods of data collection, Results, Discussion and Conclusion. While sports reporting was headline and story driven, Jarrod’s data driven approach made the readers, sports administrators, coaches and players sit up. It produced a new meaning for data driven decision making in sport.If you love sport and science, this episode is one for you.DISCLAIMER: There will be an education about cricket for you as well.Jarrod’s social media details:Twitter: https://twitter.com/ajarrodkimber?s=20LinkedIn (for the “acting” professional): https://www.linkedin.com/in/jarrodkimber/YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/JarrodKimberYT/videosCricket with “balls” https://web.archive.org/web/20181224134625/https://cricketwithballs.com/

Imagine a world where there ia data deluge; much more than what it is today. What if there was a way to tap into this data without compromising privacy. While existing hardware and chip technologies do not have the ability to process information right on your device, they rely on sending this out to processing centers via the cloud. What if your device (be it a consumer device (like a phone or a driverless car) or a medical implant) was capable of doing all of this on the chip and enable real-time decision making. Our guest, Themis Prodromakis makes this possible via his research on memristors. To learn more, tune in. He is a professor at University of Southampton and has founded two companies - ArC instruments (which is revenue generating without raising equity financing and enables multiple chip manufacturers) and Sonet.aiSome key handles for social media savvy to follow: Centre for Electronics Frontiers that Themis directs : @CElFrontiers Themis is the Royal Academy of Engineering Chair in Emerging Technologies: @RAEngNewsArC Instruments: @ArcInstrumentsUniversity of Southampton: @unisouthamptonFORTE programme Grant in relation to #memristors: @FORTE_EPSRCEPSRC: @EPSRCRoyal Society that supports Themis' work:@royalsociety

Originally published on 21 September 2020Our next episode of SKRAPS features Dr. Sanford 'Sandy' Greenberg. He shares beautiful stories about his life, love, career, friendships, and more all culminating with the path to the End Blindness by 2020 prize, a challenge sponsored by Sandy and his wife, Sue. It's a bold initiative to tackle a huge problem.

Originally published on 15 September 2020 The pioneer of transcatheter valve shares his story on how innovation is a lonely sport. He goes through in extensive detail how the licensing, development and ultimately sale of the company came to be. This one is for all that who crave for a lesson in meaningful innovation and created a multi-billion dollar industry.

Originally published on 8 September 2020Join us to listen to this fabulous innovator, Jason Osborne describes how he went from being a kid in South Central Pennsylvania to scuba-diving for fossils. The story takes a palatable tale with BoneDusters Paleo Ale. While sipping beer, we move to discuss his next frontier – tackling STEM education and how he wanted to be IN the system to change it.CorTec – Enabling Neurophysiology CorTec is the leading tool manufacturer for central and peripheral neurophysiology.

Take a listen as this fascinating raconteur and an amazing leader stirs the calm waters of science. From engineered cardiac tissue to ceramic barbecue to employing artists in a science lab, cuttlefish to fashion, employing counter-insurgency methods learnt in battlefields in Afghanistan to turn science on its head, need for after-action reviews in science, flexible chocolate and bubble gum making – Kit has got it all under control. Kit’s insight into leadership is just a revelation!CorTec – Enabling Neurophysiology CorTec is the leading tool manufacturer for central and peripheral neurophysiology.

In part 2 of the interview, Warren eloquently describes a neuromodulation theory in layman terms. Plus, we also ask him about his work on peripheral nerve stimulation efforts and more recent modelling efforts. Most notable is how he empowers his trainees to find their path through their graduate school. Finally, we end with the answer to the question – “What happened to the BMW?”CorTec – Enabling Neurophysiology CorTec is the leading tool manufacturer for central and peripheral neurophysiology.

In the first of our two-part episode with Professor Warren Grill, we learn how cars, a failed letter of recommendation, and sailing led him to where he is today. We discover P. Hunter Peckham’s advice for networking and more. Stay tuned for Part 2, coming soon.CorTec – Enabling Neurophysiology CorTec is the leading tool manufacturer for central and peripheral neurophysiology.
