Dr. Gladys Ngetich is a Rhodes Scholar and a Schmidt Science Fellow. She is currently undertaking her postdoctoral research at Space Enabled at MIT under Schmidt Science Fellowship. She completed her PhD in Engineering Science (Aerospace) at Oxford Thermofluids Institute at the University of Oxford in 2019. During her PhD, she researched efficient ways of cooling jet engines. Before joining Oxford, Gladys pursued her bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology in Kenya. Gladys is an experienced leader, motivational speaker, footballer, author, and passionate about women's empowerment. She heads Iluu; an organization that mentors, inspires, and empowers women and girls in Kenya. 'The PhD journey: In this book, she has shared some strategies for enrolling and thriving in a PhD journey mostly based on my experience reading for a PhD in Engineering Science at the University of Oxford. She also interviewed 15 friends who generously shared what they wish they had been told before they embarked on their PhD journeys, they also share how they settled on their PhD research topics, how they sourced funding etc.The Vulnerable Scientist is a Kenyan-based podcast that focuses on scientists' stories about their daily lives, work, and how they got to where they are. I am your host Sarah Nyakeri, a scientist, informal science communicator and a hiker. I am a multidisciplinary individual that does digital marketing and website design during my free time.The main questions asked that scientists are expected to answer vulnerable are: How are you, Introduce yourself, how did you become a scientist, What are the highs and lows you have experienced in your science career, tell the listeners about your hobbies, what question would you like to answer that has not been asked and how do you feel after having this conversation.If you want to be Vulnerable on the show, send me an audio message either on speak pipe (https://www.speakpipe.com/VulnerableScientistVoicemail ) or anchor (https://anchor.fm/thevulnerablescientist/message).Feel free to reach out too if you want to talk about a certain topic in the science career space or anything as a scientist that might have nothing to with science but affects scientists.

For Earth Day on April 22, director of the MIT Media Lab's Space Enabled Program Danielle Wood gave a lecture held at Campbell Hall. In her lecture, Wood discussed her background working for NASA and how her research aims to advance justice worldwide. KCSB's Tim Guan has the story.

This week on the IB Green Minds podcast, Alex speaks with Nikolai Khlystov, Lead of Space and Mobility at the World Economic Forum. They discuss the importance of the Space sector to socioeconomic development, as well as the challenges posed by the increasing volumes of Space debris in Lower Earth Orbit. With this background, Nikolai explains the importance of the world's first Space Sustainability Rating that was recently developed by the World Economic Forum, the European Space Agency, the Space Enabled research group at MIT, the University of Texas at Austin, and BryceTech.

In this week's episode, host Daniel Raimi talks with Danielle Wood, assistant professor and director of the Space Enabled research group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media Lab. Wood uses her expertise in aerospace engineering, aeronautics and astronautics, and technology policy to enhance societal development, bringing together tools not just from space and engineering, but also from economics and other social sciences. Wood discusses her recent research in Brazil and collaborations with policymakers around the world, who use space-based technologies to improve life here on Earth.

Danielle Wood leads the Space Enabled research group at the MIT Media Lab, where she works to tear down the barriers that limit the benefits of space exploration to only the few, the rich or the elite. She identifies six technologies developed for space exploration that can contribute to sustainable development across the world -- from observation satellites that provide information to aid organizations to medical research on microgravity that can be used to improve health care on Earth. "Space truly is useful for sustainable development for the benefit of all peoples," Wood says. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Danielle Wood est à la tête du groupe de recherche « Space Enabled » du Media Lab du MIT, où elle travaille à faire tomber les barrières qui limitent les bénéfices de l'exploration spatiales à seulement une poignée de gens, aux riches, à l'élite. Elle identifie six technologies développées pour l'exploration spatiale qui peuvent contribuer au développement durable dans le monde entier – des satellites d'observation qui fournissent des informations aux ONG à la recherche médicale sur la microgravité qui peut être utilisée pour améliorer les soins médicaux sur Terre. Selon elle, « l'espace est vraiment utile au développement durable pour le bénéfice de tous. »
