Jessica Escobar is a longtime violinist with the Reno Philharmonic Orchestra and other ensembles all around Nevada and beyond. By day, she works across the street from the Pioneer concert hall as a full-time certified court interpreter for the Second Judicial District Court of Nevada. In her job as interpreter, she helps people oflimited English proficiency gain access to justice by bridging the language gap in court proceedings. In addition to her current career as an interpreter, Jessica used her double major in French and Anthropology to teach English and French classes first in France for two years, then here in Reno at the University of Nevada and Truckee Meadows Community College. She has translated and interpreted for regional police departments, hospitals, mental health facilities, courts, and even the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair as a freelancer for ten years before obtaining her current position. After learning more about the role of interpreters, its easy to see why a 2001 study placed interpreters in thecategory of "high-stress professions," which included first responders, military personnel, neurosurgeons, and air traffic controllers. So in July 2017, Jessica decided to take up Transcendental Meditation, or TM for short, in hopes of improving her quality of life and preventing future health problems caused by stress and anxiety. In our conversation we talk about how Jessica first was introduced to Transcendental Meditation and what drew her to that practice specifically, how she views her musical life and meditation, and some recommendations for how to get started if you are interested in TM. Jessica has seemingly boundless energy and kindness and brings such a wonderful presence with here to every situation. It was a pleasure to talk with her and I am sure you will all get a lot out of this conversation.  Links and Contact Information More info about Jessica: www.renophil.com/jessica-escobar/ Reno Transcendental Meditation center: www.meditationforlifereno.com/

Welcome back to another Monday Wire, on today's show: Isla and Stella bring you "Tomorrow's World". They look at AI and machine learning with Krithik Ramesh, who won the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair at 16. Charlie speaks to Olga Pantos from the Institute of Environmental Science and Research about how microplastics affect our lives, and how they're monitored. She also speaks to Oska Rego from the New Zealand Animal Law Association about the current state of New Zealand's cattle laws and what can be done to improve them. Sam speaks to Dr Paul Winton about the 1.5 Project, how you can reduce your carbon emissions, and further climate action. He also speaks to Wendy Johns from Friends of Oakley Creek about the restoration of Te Auaunga Oakley Creek.

Shreya Ramachandran is a high school senior and global leader in water conservation. We talk about her passion for water conservation and grey water reuse and what an integral piece of the larger environmental conservation puzzle it is. She touches on how many aspects of sustainability flow back into the need to conserve and protect our water resources. She shares how personally experiencing a terrible drought in California five years ago sparked her interest in water conservation and after a trip to India she realized what a global issue water scarcity is and how similarly it affects people around the world. She created her non-profit, The Grey Water Project, in 2016 because she wanted to do her part in promoting the safe reuse of grey water and water conservation through outreach, advocacy, policy changes and grey water curricula. Her curricula is available for free and so far has impacted more than 50,000 people in 90+ schools across four countries. Shreya has some many amazing accomplishments, but here are a few highlights: in 2017, she was awarded the President's Environmental Youth Award and invited to become a member of the United Nation's Global Waste Water Initiative, her research received a grand award at the 2019 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, she was named a Top 20 Global Finalist in the 2019 Google Science Fair, and she also received the 2019 Children's Climate Prize, an international award given to one environmentalist each year.

A grande vantagem de ser criança é poder sonhar em ser o que quiser. Em um dia trabalhamos em um escritório, em outro apagamos um incêndio. Há dias em que viramos chefes de cozinha e, em outros, vamos à Lua ou até mesmo um asteroide recebe nosso nome. Essa curiosidade e imaginação fértil nos faz ter um grande apreço da infância. É nesta fase que desenvolvemos o interesse e nos perguntarmos: o que vamos ser quando crescer? Ter curiosidade e interesse, querer testar diversas teorias e possibilidades, ser aficionado por conhecimento e por descobrir coisas novas faz com que toda criança seja um cientista. O ViaCast de hoje conversa com Juliana Estradioto sobre o seu caminho no meio científico. Neste programa, ela conta como teve contato com a ciência, sua primeira experiência com pesquisa, a importância de artigos e trabalhos criados para novos cientistas, a motivação necessária para se trabalhar no meio e sobre todo o processo de um projeto científico, das ideias à conclusão. Também falamos como é a cerimônia do Prêmio Nobel, a valorização da educação para o jovem ter interesse em ser cientista, e em como a nossa convidada conseguiu ter um asteroide batizado com seu nome e muito mais.

This episode, we've got Stanford CS & Physics junior Amber Yang on the couch! Hailing from Orlando, FL, she is the founder and CEO of SeerTracking. SeerTracking originated as Amber's high school research project for the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. She ended up winning the Intel Foundation Young Scientist Award and later on that year, she was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. So far, the company has been working on creating a machine learning-based software capable of predicting space debris orbits for satellite collision avoidance and has been working on a pilot version with several satellite launch companies. Some questions we discuss...What inspired her to work on this idea for Intel? What made her incorporate? What were the most difficult challenges? How has COVID-19 affected her and the space industry?

A new PBS documentary, Inventing Tomorrow, follows six young scientists from Indonesia, Hawaii, India and Mexico as they tackle some of the most complex environmental issues facing humanity today—right in their own backyards. Each student is preparing original scientific research that they will defend at ISEF, the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. Against the backdrop of today's most pressing environmental threats, we immerse the audience in a global view of the planetary crisis, through the eyes of the generation that will be affected by it most. The film debuts on July 29, and on today's episode we'll talk with the film's director, Laura Nix, and one of the teens featured in the film, Sahithi Pingali.

Why do teenagers sometimes make outrageous, risky choices? Do they suddenly become reckless, or are they just going through a natural phase? To find out, Kashfia Rahman -- winner of the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (and a Harvard freshman) -- designed and conducted an experiment to test how high school students respond to and get used to risk, and how it changes their still-developing brains. What she discovered about risk and decision-making could change how we think about why teens do what they do. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Por que os adolescentes, às vezes, fazem escolhas ultrajantes e arriscadas? De repente, eles se tornam imprudentes, ou estão apenas passando por uma fase natural? Para descobrir, Kashfia Rahman, vencedora da Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (e caloura de Harvard), projetou e conduziu um experimento para testar como alunos do ensino médio reagem e se acostumam a se arriscar, e como isso muda o cérebro deles ainda em desenvolvimento. O que ela descobriu sobre risco e tomada de decisões pode mudar nossa forma de pensar por que os adolescentes fazem o que fazem.

Colorado's Science Fair Stars (starts at 3:18) As the end of the school year approaches for high school students, it’s a good time to celebrate the achievements and passion of students in Colorado who have excelled in science, technology, math and engineering (STEM). Two of them -- Hope Weinstein, a senior at Fairview High in Boulder, and Michael Brady, a senior at Cherry Creek High School in Greenwood Village -- were finalists at a renowned global competition last week. It’s the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, which is a program of Society for Science & the Public. Hope and Michael talk with co-host Susan Moran about their research and their message to other students. Rosetta Comet Mission (starts at 15:16) When he's not busy volunteering with How On Earth, Joel Parker is an astronomer with the Southwest Research Institute -- and that's the hat he has on today as our in-studio guest. He joins us to talk about the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission, which will tag along with comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko as it swings nearer to the sun later this summer. Joel is the Deputy Lead Investigator for ALICE, the ultraviolet spectrometer aboard the spacecraft. He’s also the featured presenter at Cafe Scientifique tomorrow night. So think of this conversation as a preview of what you might hear if you join him tomorrow at Brooklyn’s down in Denver. Joel will give a very informal talk starting at 6:30 pm, and will try to answer all your tough questions about comets, Rosetta, or anything else. CafeSci is free and open to the public.
