Climate, trust, politics, communication. Some would say we live in a period of crisis several areas of society and life. How can we make sense of the present moment, and where do we go from here?Plus, we hear about the short list for this year's Royal Society Trivedi Science Book Prize and ask what that tells us about scientific publishing.Matthew Sweet is joined byTimothy Morton, whose most recent book is Hell: In Search of a Christian Ecology Jessica Frazier, Lecturer in the Study of Religion at the University of Oxford Clare Chambers, Professor of Political Philosophy at the University of Cambridge Jessica Wade, Royal Society University Research Fellow and Lecturer in Functional Materials at Imperial College London and one of the judges for They are all appearing at the How the Light Gets in Festival of Ideas this weekend in London - more information at howthelightsgetsin.org Plus Mark Solms, neuroscientist and editor of the newly published Revised Standard Edition of the Complete Works of Sigmund FreudThe Royal Society Trivedi Science Book Prize 2024 which will be announced on October 24th.

Here in The Rose Woman Podcast, we explore different themes of liberation in various forms. Today, we are focusing on the liberation found in celebrating the achievements of women scientists and scientists of color through storytelling. Our guest, Dr. Jessica Wade, is a Royal Society University Research Fellow, physicist, and lecturer in Functional Materials at Imperial College London.Her research considers new materials for optoelectronic, spintronic, and quantum devices, with a focus on chiral molecular materials.She was previously an Imperial College Research Fellow in SPIN-Lab at Imperial, which is led by Professor Sandrine Heutz. She worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the Fuchter and Campbell groups at Imperial College London, where she optimized these chiral systems to absorb/emit circularly polarized (CP) light for CP OLEDs and OPDs. For her PhD, Jess concentrated on organic photovoltaics and the development of advanced characterization techniques to better understand molecular packing under the supervision of Dr. Ji-Seon Kim.She is involved with several science communication and outreach initiatives, committed to improving diversity in science, both online and offline. Since the start of 2018, she has written thousands of Wikipedia biographies highlighting women scientists' achievements.In this episode, we cover:Jessica's Journey into PhysicsAdvocacy for Diversifying AcademiaRecognizing and the Impact of Unconscious Bias Algorithm in Recruitment ProcessingThoughts on Today's Education SystemsInitiative to write Wikipedia biographies for women scientistsThe Power of ImagesAddressing the lack of diversity in Academic ScienceCareer pathways of scientistsPioneer women scientists and their contributions Jessica's Research on chiral molecules and its applicationsIntegration of Science and Art as a wholeHelpful links:Dr. Jessica Wade - Physicist in the Blackett Laboratory at Imperial College London.

Wearables have become ‘must have' fashion – how can we make assistive technology as desirable? The most sophisticated device is useless if it is uncomfortable or unattractive. This episode, we are looking at the interface between design and engineering, and how the next generation of smart textiles could make assistive tech invisible. Today's episode brings together guests from EU-supported projects working on user-focused design, the metallisation and conductivity of fabric and graphene antennas embedded in textiles which could help people with Alzheimer's. Professor of Health Design and Human Factors at Coventry University, Louise Moody brought her background in psychology and user centric approach to design to the Maturolife project. Andrew Cobley is a Professor of Electrochemical Deposition and leads the Functional Materials and Chemistry Group at Coventry University. His expertise in the electrochemical metallisation of non-conductive materials was behind the production of Maturolife prototypes. Elif Ozden Yenigun is a Senior Lecturer in Textiles at the Royal College of Art. Her research concentrates on molecular materials design and innovative approaches to textile manufacturing, which she explored in her GFSMART project.

Dr. Derya Baran, a Turkish native, who studied in Austria, Germany, and the UK before now working in Saudi Arabia, has ample courage and determination that have provided a life of adventure! This is one of our best explorations of the link between the person and the science. Derya, an academic researcher and entrepreneur, that can't stop thinking about how her work can benefit people's lives. She develops smart and functional materials for energy harvesting and conversion. Specifically, innovative organic materials with photovoltaic properties that can be used in challenging (hot and/or humid) environments and present unique properties of transparency, color, and ease of manufacturing, relative to traditional silica-based technologies. Her materials are enabling incredible concepts, such as self-sustainable greenhouses that can generate all the energy they need to enable agriculture in inhospitable environments.There is a lot to like here… great science that promises to address very important global issues and the personal story of a smart, determined, woman, full of unlikely, brave choices.

Sandrine Heutz is Professor of Functional Materials at Imperial College London. We talk about her research and career. Recorded live at the Imperial Festival 2018. Full show notes:

In recent years, we have seen 3D printing put to an ever-expanding range of uses in the medical field. Products printed with manmade materials include implants, scaffolds, anatomical models and personalized devices and masks. In addition, the area of bioprinting has begun to expand, with researchers now printing live cells in order to encourage regeneration and create tissues and organs. Now, the two areas have become entwined: Michael McAlpine and his research team are developing 3D printers that are capable of printing functional materials and devices that interweave both biological and electronic materials. These new printers could impact regenerative medicine, smart prosthetics and human-machine interfaces by enabling the creation of products with customized geometries, properties and functionalities. In this interview, Michael McAlpine, Benjamin Mayhugh Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Minnesota (MN, USA), discusses his work and the increasing range of uses for 3D printing in the medical field - scroll down for the video and a summary of the questions and their timepoints.

WFIRM talks to Alvaro Mata, DEng about the Precise Bioengineering of Functional Materials and Biomimetic Environments.
