@NASA @NASASTEM @NASA @NASASTEM That's my hand!

Robots are often thought of as stiff and inorganic, but we’re taking a different approach with soft robotics. In this new @NASASTEM video, learn from a NASA engineer and intern about this field, which takes inspiration from life around us on land and sea. https://t.co/CcvyaIC4ht

13 years ago, I emailed Dr. Fauci out of the blue to ask if I might interview him for my undergrad thesis. He invited me to his office, where he answered all my questions. When I sent him the thesis, HE READ THE WHOLE THING (see his overly effusive review below). Who does that?!

Sure, we need scientists in academia. But, let’s not forget that:

We need scientists in industry
We need scientists in government
We need scientists in journalism
We need scientists in law
We need scientists in policy
...and so much more!

There is a world beyond academia.
