Dr. Anastasia Volkova is the CEO and Co-founder of Regrow Ag, a software company specializing in scalable decarbonization solutions for agriculture, using satellite imagery and proprietary biogeochemical modeling to measure and reduce scope 3 emissions on farms. Operating globally with over 100 customers—including General Mills, Nestle, Kellogg and Unilever—and monitoring 10%+ of the world's arable land, Regrow aims to be a one-stop shop for the agriculture industry's climate needs. Anastasia has a PhD in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Sydney. She is also a member of the Forbes Technology Council, a TEDx speaker, and the recipient of multiple awards and honors, including MIT's Innovators Under 35, BBC's 100 Women 2020, UBS Global Visionary, and Bloomberg's New Economy Catalyst. In this episode, we discuss: ●     How Anastasia went from a PhD in Aerospace Engineering to focusing on agriculture ●     Why some widespread agricultural practices need updating ●     How to create a more resilient food system Key Takeaways: ●     The Compounding Effects of Our Actions: Actions don't exist in a vacuum—they compound over time, for better or worse. Agriculture provides a stark example of this.. Conventional practices that release significant greenhouse gases year after year contribute to climate change, creating extreme and unpredictable weather that destabilizes food production. This instability carries immense direct and indirect costs for society. The more we continue down this path, the worse it will become. On the flip side, investing in regenerative practices—while requiring upfront investments—yields compounding positive effects over time. These practices not only help mitigate climate change but also build a resilient food system that can sustain future generations. The key is zooming out to understand how the long-term impacts of today's choices ripple far into the future. ●     The Beauty of an Unscripted Journey: The most fascinating career paths are rarely linear. Anastasia's academic and professional journey is a testament to the beauty of following your interests, even when the destination isn't clear. Sometimes, this meandering path leads to creating something entirely new—something that didn't exist before. Letting go of the notion that your career should follow someone else's trajectory is liberating. Each of us is meant to carve out our own way, and as we move forward the uniqueness of our path becomes more evident. So, embrace the unexpected turns and trust that your journey will lead down the road that was meant for you. ●     Transforming Tradition Through Innovation: Rice paddy cultivation has long been a symbol of timeless tradition—a picturesque image etched into collective memory. Yet, even centuries-old practices aren't immune to the transformative power of innovation. It's wild to think that after so many generations, there could be a better way to cultivate rice, a way that challenges the norm and improves upon it. That's the magic of innovation: it takes what seems fixed and familiar and reimagines it, creating something better. Whether it's rice paddies or any other deeply ingrained system, innovation reminds us that progress is always possible, and the status quo is just a starting point.

You've heard of fruit leather, but what about making leather from fruit? Or more precisely, feeding fruit waste like mango pulp to bacteria which then convert those sugars into a leather-like material that can be useful for all types of purposes? That's exactly what Polybion, a startup in Central Mexico, is doing. Co-founded in 2015 by two brothers with a passion for using biology to save humanity from ourselves—as CEO Axel Gómez-Ortigoza puts it—Polybion has pioneered methods of turning the fruit industry's trash into what they hope will be their treasure. As you'll hear in this episode, Polybion has methods for treating fruit waste to make it economic as a feedstock in their fermentation system to grow cellulose into a leather-like material they call Celium. Already the company is partnered with fashion companies eager to put Celium into their menu of offerings. To sustainably feed and clothe ourselves into the future, it's imperative that we no longer go big with animal agriculture, but instead go small with microbial agriculture. Will Polybion's cellulose leather be a part of the solution? Time will tell. But for now, enjoy hearing the wild ride this company's been on from conception to pivoting technologies to getting a product out onto the market. Discussed in this episode You can see photos of Celium here. CNN on the partnership between Danish fashion brand Ganni and Polybion. Suzanne Lee was an inspiration for Polybion's founders. Ecovative also inspired them, and we did an episode with them too! Plastic-eating fungi offer hope Axel recommends reading Microcosmos and My Inventions. He also recommends watching the original Carl Sagan Cosmos TV series from the 1980s. (The 2014 remake with Neil deGrasse Tyson is also great.) Guillermo González Camarena was an engineer who served as an inspiration to Axel.  More about Axel Gómez-Ortigoza Axel Gómez-Ortigoza was born with an innate fascination for the mysteries of life, the natural world, and the universe, which sparked his lifelong passion for life sciences and finding solutions to complex problems.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannon-miller-5a7bba5/ (Shannon Miller) is the chief executive officer and co-founder of https://www.mainspringenergy.com/ (Mainspring Energy) — a Menlo Park, California company that sees itself as part of the affordable, reliable, net-zero carbon grid of the future.  She leads the design, manufacture, and commercialization of the Mainspring Linear Generator, whose fuel-agnostic design enables it to adjust dynamically for varying fuel quality and different types of fuels. Those fuels include renewables such as biogas, green ammonia, and green hydrogen — which is why many of you solar warriors will want to this podcast. This innovative generator aims to increase grid reliability and resilience while accelerating the transition to clean fuels. How does it do that? Where did the idea originate? And how did Mainspring grow from zero in 2010 to near unicorn status?  We'll explore all those questions in today's conversation with Shannon, a remarkable woman who holds a bachelor's, master's and a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from Stanford University and was recognized in 2012 by the MIT Technology Review as one of "35 Innovators Under 35." And just this month, she was recognized for advancing women's leadership in clean energy as one of only 9 annual DOE awardees for the https://c3e.org/news/2022/10/4/doe-congratulates-2022-clean-energy-education-amp-empowerment-award-winners (C3E initiative). Mainspring Energy has raised nearly a half a billion in funding, including $290 in the Series E round announced only a few weeks ago. That's no small feat.  A former National Science Foundation Fellow, Shannon received funding from the Global Climate Energy Project to advance her research at Stanford on improving fuel conversion efficiency to electricity. She collaborated with Mainspring Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer Matt Svrcek to design and develop the early prototype that served as the foundation for Mainspring's linear generator technology. Join us to learn more about how Shannon, Matt and Chief Product Officer Adam Simpson, the company's third co-founder, combined low cost and low emissions with high efficiency, fuel flexibility, and full dispatchability to create the Mainspring Linear Generator.

One of today's hottest areas of computational research could help build better solutions for one of global society's steepest challenges. Three early career computational scientists talk about AI's potential for understanding and predicting climate shifts, supporting strategies for incorporating renewable energy, and engineering other approaches that reduce carbon emissions. They also describe how AI can be misused or can perpetuate existing biases. Working at this important research interface requires broad knowledge in areas such as climate science, public policy and engineering coupled with computational science and mathematics expertise. These early career researchers talk about their approaches to bridging this gap and offer their advice on how to become a scientific integrator. You'll meet: Priya Donti is a Ph.D. student at Carnegie Mellon University, pursuing a dual degree in public policy and computer science, and a 4th year DOE CSGF recipient. She is also a co-founder and chair of the volunteer organization, Climate Change AI, which provides resources and a community for researchers interested in applying artificial intelligence to climate challenges.

Today's guest is Perttu Pölönen. He is a futurist, inventor and author. He is a classically trained composer by education but became an entrepreneur at a young age. He has studied future technologies at Singularity University, in Silicon Valley, co-founded an ed-tech company in Myanmar, written two books and won the EU's biggest science competition for youth. In 2018, MIT Tech Review honored him among the 35 Innovators Under 35 in Europe. I invited Perttu on the show to talk about his wonderful book Future Skills (to be released in English later in 2021). The book is a suggestion of a ‘new curriculum' of future skills that is essential in order to continue the process of educational and human development. So many gems popped up in this conversation including: Why future literacy is needed for the next generation. The danger of passing on obsolete knowledge to future generations. Which tools best help us tolerate uncertainty. The importance of getting to know yourself on the path to wellness. The art of slowing down to experience depth of learning. (Are we making the world a better place or a more efficient place?) Asking important questions such as: What can I give my students that google cant? Please enjoy!

There is no shortage of predictions about how advances in artificial intelligence, machine learning and robotics will possibly see humans replaced in all kinds of jobs. Technological advances in artificial intelligence have certainly made it possible to use robotics and automate many jobs that previously could only be done by a human. Despite fears or questions about robots taking over, human brainpower will still be necessary. Realistically, instead of destroying entire jobs and creating completely new robot-led occupations AI and automation will most likely more change what activities people focus on in their work and perhaps share with AI-driven robots. According to McKinsey, given currently demonstrated technologies, very few occupations—less than 5 percent—are candidates for full automation. However, almost every occupation has partial automation potential, and a proportion of its activities could be automated. McKinsey estimates that about half of all the activities people are paid to do in the world’s workforce could potentially be automated by adapting currently demonstrated technologies. That amounts to almost $15 trillion in wages. Depending on the job and the area of application, humans and robots can work together with varying degrees of collaboration. Industry calls this “human-robot collaboration.” This collaboration is defined as: Coexistence: Humans and robots work in adjacent workspaces without safety fencing. They do not, however, share a common workspace and work independently of one another on different tasks. Cooperation: In human-robot cooperation, humans and robots work in the same workspace. They work alternately on different tasks within a process. There is no direct interaction. Collaboration: Humans and robots interact in a shared workspace. For example, the robot passes something to the human operator, or they simultaneously perform different tasks on the same work. Today’s guests Laura Major and Julie Shah have dedicated their careers to this idea of advanced human-robot interaction. Laura Major is CTO of Motional (previously Hyundai-Aptiv Autonomous Driving Joint Venture), where she leads the development of autonomous vehicles. Previously, she led the development of autonomous aerial vehicles at CyPhy Works and a division at Draper Laboratory. Major has been recognized as a national Society of Women Engineers Emerging Leader. She lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Julie Shah is a roboticist at MIT and an associate dean of social and ethical responsibilities of computing. She directs the Interactive Robotics Group in the Schwarzman College of Computing at MIT. She was a Radcliffe fellow, has received an National Science Foundation Career Award, and has been named one of MIT Technology Review's "Innovators Under 35." She lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts. They have co-authored the book WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU’RE EXPECTING ROBOTS, introducing us to the revolutionary idea of human-robot collaboration. They believe that next generation of robots won’t be limited to specific tasks like your Roomba and Alexa are right now. They will be able to drive on roads, deliver goods, stock shelves, and coordinate teams of nurses and doctors. These advanced machines will work with us, not just for us.

At SCAI, it's an interdisciplinary team of social scientists, computer scientists, software engineers, designers, and program managers from the lab who come together for creating, nurturing and evaluating our research ideas through real world deployments and validations. [Music] Sridhar: Welcome to the Microsoft Research India podcast, where we explore cutting-edge research that’s impacting technology and society. I’m your host, Sridhar Vedantham. [Music] At Microsoft Research India, research focused on societal impact is typically a very interdisciplinary exercise that pulls together social scientists, technology experts and designers. But how does one evaluate or validate the actual impact of research in the real world? Today, we talk to Tanuja Ganu who manages the Societal Impact through Cloud and AI (or SCAI) group in MSR India. SCAI focuses on deploying research findings at scale in the real world to validate them, often working with a wide variety of collaborators including academia, social enterprises and startups. Tanuja has been recognized as one of MIT Technology Review’s Innovators Under 35 (MIT TR 35) in 2014 and by IEEE Bangalore as a Woman Technologist of the Year in 2018, and her work has been covered by top technical media. [Music] Sridhar Vedantham: Tanuja, welcome to the podcast. I'm really looking forward to this particular edition of what we do here. Because, I know that you manage SCAI and it's quite an intriguing part of the lab. Now before we get into that, tell us a little bit about yourself. Tanuja Ganu: First of all, thanks Sridhar for having me on the podcast today. And uh, yes, uh, I'm not a full-time researcher, but I'm engineer by training and I have done my Master’s in Computer Science. Over the last decade or so, my work is primarily at the intersection of research and engineering, and it's on the applied research side. So throughout my experience and journey, working at research labs and start up, I'm very much interested in taking a research idea through the entire incubation phase to validate its applicability in real world problem settings. Sridhar Vedantham: So, Tanuja, I know you manage this thing called SCAI within the lab and I think it's a very interesting part of the lab. Talk to us a little bit about that, and especially expand upon what SCAI- the term SCAI- itself stands for, because I myself keep tripping up on it whenever I try to explain it. Tanuja Ganu: Yes, Sridhar. So since the inception of our lab, the lab has been doing very interesting work in the societal impact space. Additionally, with the advances in artificial intelligence and cloud-based technologies in recent years there are increased opportunities to address some of these societal problems through technology and amplify its positive effect. So as the name suggests, SCAI, that is Societal Impact through Cloud and Artificial Intelligence, it is an incubation platform within MSR for us to ideate on such research ideas, work with our collaborators like academia, NGOs, social enterprises, startups, and to test or validate our hypothesis through very well defined real world deployments. Also our location in India allows us to witness and carefully analyze various socio-economic challenges. So the solutions that we ideate are inspired by Indian settings and in many cases equally applicable to different parts of the world. Sridhar Vedantham: Interesting, so it sounds like there's a fair amount of difference between the kind of work that SCAI does and between what the rest of the lab actually does in terms of research. Tanuja Ganu: So at MSR India, where research work is mainly along three different axes, firstly advancing the state of the art in science and technology, second is inspiring the direction for technology advances, and the third important axis is building the technology for driving societal impact. So SCAI is primarily focused on social impact access and many of our projects also do have very strong academic and technological impact. At SCAI, it's an interdisciplinary team of social scientists, computer scientists, software engineers, designers, and program managers from the lab who come together for creating, nurturing and evaluating our research ideas through real world deployments and validations. So that's really the difference in terms of the other type of research that we do at lab and what we do at SCAI. Sridhar Vedantham: So when you decide to take up a project or accept it under the SCAI umbrella, what do you actually look for? Tanuja Ganu: Yeah, we look for a few things for defining a SCAI project. So firstly, it should address a significant real-world problem and should have a potential to scale. The second thing is the problem should offer interesting research challenges for our team. The next thing is whether we have credible partners or collaborators with domain expertise to deploy, evaluate and validate of our research. We also look for how we can define rigorous impact evaluation plan for a project. And lastly, we look for what are the feasible graduation paths for the project within two to three years of time horizon. Sridhar Vedantham: What do you mean by graduation? Tanuja Ganu: So, um, there are different ways in which a particular project can complete its successful execution at SCAI center, and that's what we're really terming it as a graduation. And there could be really different types of graduation path depending upon each type of project. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, let's talk a little bit about some of the projects that you are currently doing under the SCAI umbrella. Because to me from what you've said so far, it sounds like there's probably going to be a fairly wide spread of types of projects, and quite a large variety in the type of things that you're doing there. Tanuja Ganu: So yes, Sridhar, that's very true. We are working on a very diverse set of projects right now. And, um, so to give a flavor of our work, I would discuss about two or three projects briefly. The first project is called HAMS that is Harnessing Automobiles for Safety. We all know that road safety is very critical issue and according to World Bank Report globally there are 1.25 million road traffic deaths every year. In India there is one death every 4 minutes. That happens due to road accidents. So, to understand and address this very critical issue of road safety, HAMS project was initiated by our team at MSR, including Venkat Padmanabhan, Akshay Nambi and Satish Sangameswaran. HAMS provides a low cost solution which is being evaluated for automated driver license testing. HAMS includes a smartphone with its associated sensors like camera, accelerometer, etc that is fitted inside a car. It monitors a driver and the driving environment and using AI and edge intelligence, it provides effective feedback on the safe driving practices. So at present, HAMS has been deployed at regional transport office in Dehradun, India for conducting dozens of driver license tests a day, and the feedback from this deployment is very encouraging, since it provides transparency and objectivity to the overall license testing and evaluation process. The second project is in the domain of natural language processing, called Interactive Neural Machine Translation, which was initiated by Kalika Bali and Monojit Choudhury in our NLP team. So, when we look at this problem, there are 7000 plus spoken languages worldwide, and for many many use cases, we often need to translate content from one language to another. Though there are many commercial machine translation tools available today, those are applicable to a very small subset of languages, say 100, which have sufficiently large digital datasets available to train machine learning models. So to aid human translation process as well as for creating digital data set for many low resource or underserved languages, we combine innovations from deep learning and human computer interactions and bring human in the loop. So when we talk about INMT, the initial translation model is bootstrapped using small data set that is available for these languages. And then INMT provides quick suggestions for human translators while they are performing translations. And over time it also helps in creating larger digital datasets which would help in increasing accuracy of translation for such underserved languages. So in INMT we're currently working with three external collaborators called Pratham Books, Translators Without Borders and CGNet Swara to evaluate and enhance INMT. So just to give few examples, Pratham Books is a nonprofit publisher who would like to translate children story books in as many languages as possible. Translators Without Borders is a nonprofit who is working in the areas of crisis relief, health and education, and they would like to evaluate IN&MT for an Ethiopian language called Tigrinya. Our other collaborator CGNet Swara is working with INMT for collecting Hindi Gondi data set. And just to give you one last flavor of one more project… Sridhar Vedantham: So I'm sorry, sorry to interrupt, but I was curious, how do you actually go around selecting or identifying partners and collaborators for these projects? Tanuja Ganu: So when we started thinking about SCAI projects last year, we had initiated a call for proposals where we invited external partners and collaborators to submit various ideas that they do have and the process that they have in addressing some of the societal impact projects and we Interestingly received a huge pool of applications through this call for proposals we received more than 150 applications through that. And through careful evaluation process, as we discussed earlier, we finally selected a few projects to start under SCAI umbrella. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, so I'm sorry I interrupted. You wanted to…you were speaking about another project. Tanuja Ganu: Yeah, so just to give one more flavor of the project that we are currently doing which is addressing another important issue of air pollution. So air pollution is another major concern worldwide, with an estimated 7 million deaths every year, and when we look in India, it's even more serious problem since 13 out of 20 most polluted cities in the world are in India. So to solve the air pollution problem, it is important to get correct monitoring of pollution levels, their timely and seasonal patterns in more granular manner, that is, from multiple locations inside the city. So apart from sophisticated and expensive air pollution monitoring stations feature already available, there are low-cost air pollution sensors which are being deployed for this purpose. But the local sensors tend to drift or develop fault overtime and the entire monitoring and analytical insights are dependent on reliability and correctness of this IoT data. So taking these things into account, we are now evaluating our research project called Dependable IoT for these low-cost air pollution sensors. Dependable IoT helps in automatically identifying and validating the drift or malfunction in the sensors and notifies for recalibration or replacement. So currently we are working with a few startups in this space to evaluate dependable IoT Technology and as the project name such as this is not only limited to air pollution sensing, but this technology is applicable for many other use cases for IoT sensing- in agriculture, food technology or in healthcare. So I guess this gives you a view on some of the diverse projects that now we are doing and working on at present in SCAI. Sridhar Vedantham: Yeah, so this Dependable IoT thing sounds quite interesting. So correct me if I'm wrong, but essentially, what we're saying is that we're trying to figure out ways in which we can ensure that the data that we're receiving in order to extract information from it and make decisions- we're actually trying to figure out our trying to make sure that the data itself is solid. Tanuja Ganu: Absolutely. That's correct, Sridhar, and it's like monitoring the monitor, right? So while we're doing the IoT monitoring and sensing, we need to make sure that the technology that we're putting in place is being monitored and it's giving us reliable and correct data. Sridhar Vedantham: Great. Now what's also coming across to me throughout this conversation is that given the variety of projects and the variety of collaborators that you're looking at in SCAI- would I be right in saying that the kind of people that you have in SCAI in addition to the researchers, obviously who are your internal collaborators, the people who are part of SCAI, are they a very diverse and varied set of people? Tanuja Ganu: Yes, absolutely true, Sridhar. As we discussed earlier, SCAI’s an interdisciplinary team that consists of social scientists, CS researchers, solid software engineers and designers. And we also have a program called SCAI Fellows where fresh under graduates or the candidates who are already working in the industry can join on the specific SCAI project for a fixed time period and contribute towards the development of SCAI project. So particularly in SCAI, in addition to all these technical or academic skills, we're also looking for people who have passion for societal impact and willingness to do the field work and deployment to scale a research idea. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, and you know, you might at any point of time be working on say, four, five or six projects. Uh, what happens to these projects once they are completed? Tanuja Ganu: Yeah, so I would say each project would have a different graduation plan. So whenever a project is complete from the SCAI perspective, we call it as a graduation plan where we would define how this project would then sustainably grow further internally or externally. And this graduation plan would be different for different projects depending upon the nature of the project. So for some of the projects, the graduation plan could be an independent entity that is spun off to take the journey of the project forward by scaling the initial idea to more people, more geographies, or for more use cases. A very good example of this type of graduation plan is a MSR project called 99 DOTS, where researchers like Bill Thies and others at Microsoft Research started this project to address medical adherence for tuberculosis. Over the years, this work has significantly grown and there is an independent entity spun off called Everwell to take the 99 DOTS journey forward. The other type of graduation plan can be putting up a work and technology in the open source wherein the external social enterprises, NGOs or our collaborators can build on top of it and take the solution forward at larger scale. The example of this is our work on interactive machine translation, where we have open sourced our initial work and various collaborators are now using, validating and building on top of this technology. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, and does the work that you do in SCAI or say the validation that you're looking for from research projects or the validation you're looking at of research projects through SCAI- does that feed back further into the research itself, or does it kind of just stay at SCAI? Tanuja Ganu: So, it has two or I would say it would have multiple pathways, but primarily the first thing is certainly the work that we're doing is validating certain research hypothesis that we do have. So some of the output or outcome of these SCAI projects is feeding back into the research areas and validating or invalidating the hypothesis to say how the technology is helping to solve a particular research problem or not. But also if the intervention is successful, it would be useful for external collaborators internally, externally for them to take up this idea forward and utilize the technology that we have built at SCAI to taking it to larger scale. Sridhar Vedantham: OK, so once again coming back to the fact that the projects that you do are of such different nature, how do you actually even define success metrics for SCAI projects? Tanuja Ganu: Yeah, this is a very interesting question, Sridhar. So, the whole purpose of SCAI, as the name suggests, is about bringing social impact through technology innovations. So there is no one fixed set of metrics that would be applicable for each and every project at SCAI. But our success metrics for these projects are geared towards validating whether technological interventions can support the people and ecosystem and actually help address a specific problem or not. And if it does help solve the problem, then how can we amplify the positive effect using technology? So those are really the metrics that we're defining on each of the project depending upon nature of the project. Sridhar Vedantham: So Tanuja, thank you so much for your time. This has been a great conversation and all the best for going forward in SCAI. Tanuja Ganu: Thank you, Sridhar, for having me here and I really enjoyed discussing these projects and ideas with you. Thank you. [Music Ends]

(1:48) “The broad umbrella I fall under is data science, but what I do specifically is I, my research aims to help researchers and help developers design tools for data science that are more human-centered. And a lot of that work is focused on evaluation. Basically, helping researchers and developers think more what real people will actually do with the tools that we build and how these interactions between people and data science tools can affect the overall performance of the tools themselves.”(13:24) “If you couldn’t interact in any way with a computer, it would be useless. So without human-computer interaction I hope everyone realizes that computer science just wouldn’t even exist as a field. It’s a really important facet of computer science that I think a lot of us take for granted.”(21:45) “Grad school… was the hardest thing I did in my life probably. The hardest thing. I’ve done a lot of hard things too, so far as a professor, but grad school was just really… it does sort of feel like a trial by fire. Very rewarding but very hard.”(35:34) “Definitely do not try to face those things by yourself. Knowing what I know and experiencing what I’ve experienced, if something were to happen to me in the future, the last thing I would do is keep it to myself. I wouldn’t go advertising it all over the world or anything, but I would talk to people that I trust. Definitely more than one person. And get advice, get support. Because for all of the things that I’ve had to deal with I definitely would not keep it to myself. I think that’s toxic for the individual that has to deal with that situation and I think it’s the community’s responsibility to support members of the community. So if we don’t reach out to each other, then we’re sort of failing everybody.”(42:28) “Switching to getting feedback as a thing I should seek out regularly, rather than a thing I have to put up with, I think changed things a lot.”(47:02) “The first thing I would recommend is to distinguish between what is a racist act versus a racist identity. So, doing something racist versus being a racist. Because they’re not at all the same thing.”BioLeilani Battle is an Assistant Professor at the University of Maryland, College Park, with a joint appointment in the University of Maryland Institute for Advanced Computer Studies (UMIACS). She is also affiliated with the UMD Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory (HCIL).

She was named one of the 35 Innovators Under 35 by the MIT Technology Review in 2020. Mentioned in the episode:MIT Technology Review’s Innovators Under 35

Compelling discussion with Ritu Raman, a passionate biohybrid designer, her goal is to build machines powered by biological materials. She is the recipient of MIT Technology Review 35 Innovators Under 35 Class of 2019 and the Forbes 30 Under 30 Class of 2018. A postdoctoral fellow in the renowned Langer Lab at MIT. In this episode, we spoke about why biohybrid design is important? Can we design a biohybrid muscle stronger than the biological one and enhancing its functionalities? What are the challenges of interfacing biological and synthetic materials? Is there any other living creature more inspiring than the human body structure? To which level the engineered biohybrid materials are intelligent? Can they feel the pain? To which level you have to deeply understand the biology for designing biohybrid materials and her message for inclusivity. I hope you would enjoy it.

What does it mean that IBM, Microsoft, Amazon, and others have distanced themselves from developing facial recognition technology and providing facial recognition data to vendors?

Mariana Vasconcelos is the Founder of Agrosmart, a platform that brings digital agriculture to countries with low internet infrastructures under tropical agronomic conditions. The MIT Technology Review selected her as one of the Most Brilliant Innovators Under 35 and a Global Ambassador for Thought of Food. Being a farmer’s daughter, Mariana was aware of the problems that plague small farmers, especially when it comes to decisions about crops. To solve this gap, she proposed the idea to use AI and IoT to acquire more productive, sustainable, and economic agriculture which is what Agrosmart represents.   Mariana joins me today to discuss how Agrosmart works and the problems it seeks to solve for farmers in developing countries. She shares where her drive to start her company came from and the challenges of finding capital and investors. She describes how the data they collect can impact farming practices, especially in countries where farmers rely on instinct to make crop decisions. Mariana also explains why Brazil holds a lot of potential in terms of agriculture and the rising startup economy.       “We wanted to shift intuition-based decisions to fact-based decisions.” - Mariana Vasconcelos       This Week on The Future of Agriculture Podcast:   Where Mariana saw the problem that needed to be addressed in the ag industry. The changes their data can impact on the current farm systems. Why they shifted from irrigation to a digital ag platform. The farmers that can benefit the most from their platform.

Developing a solid pitch takes work, but it's a necessary process because building any kind of product requires funding. To get that money, you have to talk to people. Mursal Hedayat, cofounder and CEO of Chatterbox, knew she had a good product idea when she noticed that hardly any of the people solving problems for the refugee community were refugees themselves. But to convince others that her product deserved investment, she has had to perfect her pitch.   Show notes Mursal Hedayat, cofounder and CEO Chatterbox (1:42) Chatterbox is an online learning platform where people can learn skills from refugees, starting with language skills Mursal was included in Forbes' 30 Under 30 list of social entrepreneurs MIT Technology Review covered Mursal and Chatterbox in their Innovators Under 35 series   Conversation with Phil Libin, All Turtles CEO (11:53) Phil's video on how to pitch investors We want to hear from you Please send us your comments, suggested topics, and listener questions for future All Turtles Podcast episodes.

Given the depth of our conversation with Hera, this episode would be released in 2 parts of about 30 minutes each. In her day job, Hera works at the open contracting partnership as a senior community manager.In 2018 alone, Hera has been featured in Forbes 30 Under 30 and MIT Tech Review's list of 35 Innovators Under 35. She also received the UK Prime Minister's Points of Light award in July 2018. "I got into what we do at Chayn because gender based violence was something that really made me angry." As Hera tried to figure out what she wanted to do in her life, she was in the explorer mode. Trying to start-up but eventually getting involved in a lot of volunteer programs that did work in the field of prevention of sexual abuse but given the rigor the program entailed, when Hera missed a few days she was asked to leave the program. Given that Hera was a high achiever, she took it was particularly hardly to internalize that she was asked to leave a program that she felt so strongly about. The depth with which Hera talks about her feelings is a testament to her level of self-awareness which is a great quality for anyone to have, especially for someone who runs a large scale social impact organization the way Hera does with Chayn. A social change business model hackathon was a watershed moment when it struck Hera that there are so many ways that scaleble social change organizations were being built and reflected on how she could build one as well, but that happens a bit later in the story. (The rest as they say in history, but keep reading…) Or to put it in Hera's words, where she thought - "If she can do it, I can do it as well." Interesting that she mentions that since the premise of a podcast like the Passion People Podcast is one where we encourage people to pause and reflect on this exact thought with the idea being access to extra-ordinary stories to catalyze that person to dive into something that matters to them by drawing on the inspiration of others, just like them. The second and more defining moment came when Hera helped 2 of her friends, one in Pakistan and one in the UK get out of abusive relationships / marriages and rebuild their lives. The more she spoke the problems of women with Asia backgrounds with regard to domestic abuse, violence or relationships a narrative evolved. One that was being narrated by men or middle aged folks running organizations where they are supposed to help people that they themselves are so disconnected to. Another interesting observation in the sector was the lack of a data driven approach to help the people approaching organizations where there was tremendous traffic coming to the website but the organizations were able to reach out to only a fraction of that number which is one of the things that Chayn (I believe) has done a great job in addressing with - a. Having survivors be the volunteers in the organization. b. Leveraging technology to make an impact on the lives of people. Hera goes on to talk about how she has gone on to build the Chayn community of volunteers and the way they operate. They have a concept of an executive team where identified volunteers take on additional oversight responsibility for short periods of time and people get rotated in these positions to ensure that everyone gets an organizational perspective. Another interesting as aspect of how Chayn works is the 4 month-cycle. During a 4-month cycle, specific agenda items are worked on by the whole team and seems to be working well. In a world of distractions and scatter brained-ness, focusing and mastering one thing at a time seems like an obvious thing to do but that isn't the case. That's about it for part 1/2.
