Researchers have been trying to make invisible drones and camouflaged robots for years, before that it was cars and planes. They have used everything from transparent materials to light-bending optical systems or cloaks, but haven't been able to make it happen. But now, engineers at Northwestern University have created a drone that appears to vanish in plain sight after it takes flight. The team created the Phantom Twist, a drone that uses a concept called "motion blur" -- the effect that makes fast-spinning fans and propellers look like a ghostly smudge. The drone spins up to 25 times per second, which is too fast for the human eye to see clearly. While it isn't completely invisible, it appears to seamlessly blend into the background. The work could lead to drones that monitor wildlife, survey the environment and inspect infrastructure with less visual disruption.To design the drone, the engineers first used a computational model to generate some 20,000 drone configurations capable of stable flight. Next, they used AI and optimization algorithms to rearrange the drones' major components, including a motor, propeller, circuit board, counterweight and batteries. It was the algorithms that determined the ideal placement of the drone's components to minimize its visibility from virtually every viewing angle while allowing for stable flight. Northwestern's Michael Rubenstein, who led the project, said, "The design process was fully automated ... Then, when we were confident that a drone met all our criteria, we built it."According to the visibility metric, the optimized drone is about 10 times less visually perceptible than a conventional quadcopter.The new drone still has several limitations. For example, the propeller still makes noise, and some wires and support rods are still somewhat visible. Next, the team is working on new iterations with more transparent materials or quieter propulsion to make the Phantom Twist truly disappear.#AI, #Drone, #Drones, #Robotics, #Engineering, #Innovation, #NorthwesternUniversity, #ArtificialIntelligence, #Technology, #STEM, #Automation, #Research, #FutureTech, #Aviation, #Manufacturing

James is Associate Professor of Religious Studies at Northwestern University. He is the author of five books, most recently "Materializing the Bible: Scripture, Sensation, Place." His current research focuses on the secondhand circulation of Christian material culture.I spoke with James about his path into studying material religion and why materiality is essential for understanding religious practice. We discussed the Bible as a powerful object, how creativity functions in the context of literal interpretations of Scripture, and the ways religious artifacts circulate, gaining new meanings and values. James shared insights on the remixing of objects, the journey of the Gauchi brothers' Holy Land model, and the ethics of collecting and selling Christian items. We also talked about how we can be surprised by  material culture, the role of intentionality, and how secondhand spaces reveal both the endurance and transformation of Christianity in everyday life, especially in relation to popular culture.

What's up, you Beautiful Beasts! Welcome back to the show! In this episode, I sit down with Bill Quateman, International Director of Advanced BioCell, for a conversation that goes far beyond supplements and regenerative medicine. We talk about why health is so much bigger than food and exercise, what it means to have real energy, and how many people are walking around “not sick, but not well.” Bill shares why he believes symptoms are messages, how removing physical, mental, and emotional interferences can support healing, and why curiosity matters when it comes to understanding your body. We also explore self-awareness, old stories, and the idea that sometimes the biggest shift is not fixing yourself, but learning to see yourself differently.As always, I hope something lands with you today. I hope something tugs at your heart strings and/or I hope you laugh.Bio: Bill Quateman has spent more than three decades studying holistic health, regenerative medicine, and the connection between mindset and healing. His background includes a 32-year mentorship with a Northwestern University professor of psychiatry, work alongside leaders in orthomolecular medicine, and experience coaching performers and professionals toward better health and function.Since 2000, Bill has focused on areas including ozone therapy, nutrition testing, stem cell therapy, and regenerative medicine. Today, through Advanced BioCell, he helps people better understand their health, explore personalized options, and work toward what he calls PeakSpan: living your best life for as long as possible.Music by Prymary: Sean Entrikin (my hot husband) on guitar, Chris Quirarte on drums, Smiley Sean on keyboards, Rob Young on bass, and Jaxon Duane on vocals.Want to be a guest on the show?

In the United States, elections hold our representatives accountable. But voters get a limited slate of options—and significant economic redistribution is usually excluded from the ballot. Meanwhile, economic inequality in the United States is growing to record levels, and many wealthy Americans are paying a lower effective tax rate than most of their fellow citizens. Jeffrey Winters joins host Alex Lovit to discuss American oligarchy, how it distorts our democracy, and what we can do about it. Jeffrey Winters is a professor of political science and director of the Equality Development and Globalization Studies program at Northwestern University. He is the author of several books about oligarchy, wealth, and democracy, most recently The Blind Spot: How Oligarchs Dominate Our Democracies. https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Blind-Spot/Jeffrey-Winters/9781668221532 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

His new book, The Healthcare Heist, opens with a story he rarely tells. That experience became the seed of a much bigger argument: that insurers, pharmaceutical companies, private equity and venture capital firms, and electronic medical records companies all have their “hands in the cookie jar,” extracting value from a system that’s supposed to serve two primary stakeholders: the patient who needs care and the doctor who gives it. Jordan calls out the “intimacy gap” where today patients disclose everything to their doctors, while doctors are trained to disclose nothing back. He makes a provocative case that it can be closed through storytelling.  He also shares practical and valuable advice you can use: concrete steps for your next doctor’s visit and the healthcare-literacy gaps that trip up many people heading into retirement. _________________________ Bio Jordan Grumet, MD is a hospice physician who has spent his career at the intersection of medicine, money, and meaning. He’s the author of Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor’s Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life and The Purpose Code: How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy. His latest book, The Healthcare Heist, argues that patients and doctors are the only two parties with both the incentive and the ability to fix a broken healthcare system — and makes the case for shared storytelling as the tool to do it. Jordan earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan and his medical degree from Northwestern University. __________________________ For More on Jordan Grumet, MD The Healthcare Heist:How Physicians and Patients Can Unite to Transform Healthcare The Purpose Code – Dr. Jordan Grumet Taking Stock – Dr. Jordan Grumet __________________________ Other Podcast Episodes You’ll Also Love Eat Your Ice Cream – Ezekiel Emanuel, MD, PhD What Matters Most – Diane Button ___________________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

And none of it’s really improving medicine…Most people… don’t realize that they’re being pickpocketed at every single step.” On Medical Malpractice “Less than one in 10 cases that are filed actually show medical malpractice.” On the Power, and Promise, of Storytelling “Stories changed the world.”

In her role as CEO of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, she drove conversations about the issues that the nation's newest generation of war veterans care about, including the need to modernize the VA, put an end to the veteran suicide crisis, and for Congress to reclaim it's War Powers' authority. Now, Allison is running for Congress so that everyday North Carolinians have a voice they can count on in Congress to represent them in Washington. She knows what it's like to live on the edge and is ready to fight to help make life a little bit easier for families like hers that continue to be squeezed by the cost of basic needs like healthcare and housing.

Preachers do not merely need to understand the gospel accurately. They need the gospel to function at the centre of their hearts, their sermons, their pastoral ministry, and their lives.Mike Bullmore joins Mike Neglia to discuss his new book, The Heart of Preaching: The Functional Centrality of the Gospel in the Life and Work of the Preacher, published by 9Marks with a foreword by D. A. Carson. Drawing on 25 years as the founding and senior pastor of CrossWay Community Church in Bristol, Wisconsin, Bullmore reflects on how the gospel shapes sermon preparation, delivery, application, pastoral ministry, and the inner life of the preacher.The conversation explores what it means for preaching to be governed by the content and intent of Scripture, why preachers must not separate divine and human authorial intent, and how to give people the full gospel rather than a reduced version of it. Bullmore also speaks about the mentors who shaped him up close, including John Piper, D. A. Carson, C. J. Mahaney, and Greg Waybright.In the second half, Mike Neglia asks Bullmore for advice on preaching through the challenging book of Revelation. Bullmore offers wise counsel on moving forward with confidence, even when every interpretive question has not been settled.Mike Bullmore holds a PhD from Northwestern University and now serves in various venues training the next generation of faithful pastors. He lives in Kenosha, Wisconsin, with his wife, Beverly.The Heart of Preaching: The Functional Centrality of the Gospel in the Life and Work of the Preacher : https://www.crossway.org/books/the-heart-of-preaching-tpb/For information about our upcoming training events visit ExpositorsCollective.com Join our private Facebook group to continue the conversation: https://www.facebook.com/groups/ExpositorsCollective

Welcome back to The Majority Report On today's program: Benjamin Netanyahu appears on Fox News to express his fears of the Democrats and "woke-right" no longer supporting Israel. Jeffrey Winters, professor of political science at Northwestern University, joins Sam in a pre-taped interview about his new book; "The Blind Spot: How Oligarchs Dominate Our Democracy." In the Fun Half: Trump interferes with the World Cup. The president admits he called the FIFA president to get Folarin Balogun's red card suspension overturned. Doug Burgum spars with Dana Bash over his claims that the D.C. reflection pool was compromised by vandals and not by Trump's motorcade of armored vehicles that drove all over the drained pool. Abdul El-Sayed has a great answer to CNN's Casey Hunt's question about whether Israel has a right to exist. GOP gubernatorial candidate Mike Mazzei is not very convincing when trying to claim that the $70k his campaign paid Roger Stone was not in exchange for a Trump endorsement. All that and more.

Examining how memory, intergenerational transmission, and kinship work together, Relative Strangers: Romani Kinship and Palestinian Difference (U Toronto Press, 2025) sheds light on Romani life in Palestine. Arpan Roy presents an ethnographic portrait of Dom Romani communities living between Palestine and Jordan, zooming in on everyday life in working-class neighborhoods, and under conditions of perpetual war and instability. The book focuses on how Doms are able to sustain ethnic difference through kinship, even when public performances of difference are no longer emphasized – a kind of alterity that is neither visible by obvious markers like race or religious difference, nor detected by the antennas of the state. Drawing on long-term ethnographic fieldwork in Jerusalem, Ramallah, and Amman, Roy makes a case for such alterity for Romani people and other groups in the region. Analysing intimate ethnographic scenes through anthropological theories of kinship, psychoanalysis, social theory from the Global South, and more, the book reveals how alterity in the Middle East does not adhere to rigid identitarian categories. Ultimately, Relative Strangers demonstrates the inadequacy of transposing models of pluralism centred on European and American experiences of minoritization onto other contexts. Roberto Mazza is currently a visiting scholar at the Buffett Institute for Global Affairs at Northwestern University.

Drawing on the writings of Rainer Maria Rilke, behavioral science, neuroscience, philosophy, and personal experience, she argues that uncertainty is not something to be eliminated but to be navigated thoughtfully. Weingarten explains that our brains are wired to seek certainty, which leaves discomfort in the wake of unanswered questions. Yet rushing toward easy answers often leaves us more confused and stuck. She introduces practical frameworks, including a "question map" and a fruit-tree model that categorizes questions by the time and attention they require. The discussion also examines leadership, decision-making, perfectionism, community, and self-compassion. Ultimately, Weingarten suggests that growth comes not from finding immediate answers but from learning to live with meaningful questions long enough for deeper clarity and wisdom to emerge. The Essential Point The central idea of Elizabeth Weingarten's message is that uncertainty is not a problem to be solved as quickly as possible; it is a condition of life that can foster growth, insight, and self-discovery when approached with curiosity and patience. Many of life's most important questions cannot be answered immediately, and trying to force certainty often prevents us from finding the deeper understanding we actually need.

The United States has traditionally been a great promoter of international justice – forging the Nuremberg and Tokyo tribunals after World War II and leading the way in creating tribunals to address genocides in Yugoslavia and Rwanda after the Cold War. Yet the US views the International Criminal Court – the culmination of the tribunal-building process – as a dire threat. The US voted against its establishment, passed legislation threatening to invade The Hague, and tried to destroy the ICC with economic sanctions. Delving into the uneasy relationship between the world's superpower and one of its most prominent international institutions, Above the Law: The United States and the International Criminal Court (Cambridge UP, 2026) explains how the desire to shield American soldiers from unwanted ICC scrutiny is the ultimate source of tension. Offering a sophisticated analysis of the ICC's track record that shows how American fears are overblown, Daniel Krcmaric argues that a more cooperative US policy toward the ICC would benefit both sides. Our guest is Daniel Krcmaric, an Associate Professor of Political Science and Law at Northwestern University. Our host is Eleonora Mattiacci, an Associate Professor of Political Science at Amherst College. She is the author of "Volatile States in International Politics" (Oxford University Press, 2023).

In this series of episodes of Audacy Conversations, Audacy's Dennis Foley speaks with a series of experts about the history of the United States. We first hear from University of Pennsylvania history of education professor Jonathan Zimmerman about how American history is taught across the country, regional variances, and how well we all understand our history. Then, we speak with University of Pennsylvania history professor Emma Hart about the very beginning of what would become the United States: the North American colonies, how they interacted with each other, and why 13 of them declared their independence. In part three, we speak with University of California, Berkeley professor Brian DeLay about the country after its independence, its expansion, and the eventual Civil War. In part four, we speak with Northwestern University professor Kate Masur about the social challenges that existed and persisted after the Civil War into the early 1900s, the political elements that fought for power during this period, and the battle for equality. In part five, we explore modern American history with Northwestern University professor Kevin Boyle, exploring the post-World War II dynamics, events, and policies that lead us to the country we have today.

Cameron Anderson is a professor of organizational behavior at the Haas School of Business at the University of California, Berkeley. His research focuses on power, status and influence, and he teaches courses on power and politics in organizations, negotiations, and conflict resolution. Before joining Cal Berkeley, Cameron was a professor at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University and the Stern School of Business at New York University, where he was named Professor of the Year. At Berkeley, he received the Earl F. Cheit Outstanding Teaching Award in 2008. In addition to his research and teaching, Cameron regularly consults with leading organizations and corporations around the world.  In this episode we discuss the following: One of Cameron's most interesting findings is both reassuring and unsettling: being a jerk does not help people gain power, but it also does not necessarily hurt them. We often see powerful people who are selfish or manipulative, and we assume those traits caused their rise. But as Cameron explained, we confuse correlation with causation. Powerful jerks are memorable. They stand out. But for every powerful jerk, there is someone just as powerful who is decent, generous, and trustworthy. To gain power, it's not about being a jerk. But it is about being assertive. Assertive and persistent while advocating for our goals. And then if we pair assertiveness and persistence with kindness and morality, which are two of the biggest drivers of status, the outcome, in the words of Cameron, is “magical and unstoppable.” To gain power be assertive. To gain status, be kind. And to get ahead, be both.

The story of the Moy family—U.S.-born Chinese-American siblings who grow up in the first half of the 20th century—is one that spans the Pacific, covering New York, Chicago, and cosmopolitan Shanghai. It's a story that spans the Great Depression, the Second World War, the Chinese Civil War, and the early Cold War—and stars one sibling who was an early participant in the Kuomintang…and another who records propaganda for Germany and Japan during the Second World War. In her new book, The Moys of New York and Shanghai: One Family's Extraordinary Journey Through War and Revolution (University of California Press, 2026), historian Charlotte Brooks follows the Moys as they confront discrimination in the United States, search for opportunity in cosmopolitan Shanghai, and wrestle with questions of loyalty, identity, and belonging that still resonate today. Charlotte is a historian and author who has published widely on Asian American history, especially Chinese American and Chinese diaspora history. Originally from California, she graduated from Yale and worked in mainland China and Hong Kong before earning a PhD from Northwestern University. She is a professor of history at Baruch College and the CUNY Graduate Center. In this conversation, we talk about Charlotte's research, the lives of the Moy siblings, and what their experiences tell us about being Chinese American in a turbulent century.
