Definitely a good interview!-----Biography of Dr. Kahf, MD ( UCLA Anesthesiology Resident)---Sebastian Kahf is a first-year anesthesiology resident physician at UCLA. He went to Georgia Tech for undergrad and went to the Medical College of Georgia for his doctorate in medicine. In medical school, he conducted research in anesthesiology and presented his research in several state and national conferences as well as through publication in international-reach journals. By the end of medical school, he was selected for induction into the Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) national medical honor society. He is now completing his first year as a physician out in Los Angeles, California. In his free time, he is an avid runner, skier, DJ, and has started to get into surfing during the summer months. He hopes to pursue a career in academic anesthesiology and serve as faculty to teach future generations of medical students and residents. ---⁠ ⁠Please note: The views of this podcast represent those of my guest(s) and I.

Published online December 11, 2023. doi:10.21428/3ed95e66.5f4dd3e2 --- A Perspective- Exploring Multi-Factorial Aspects of Quantum Dots- Unveiling Potential Applications? ———————————————————————————————————————————-  Introduction First, in the realm of quantum dots, the gaze has long been fixed upon their size-dependent optical properties. These nanoscopic entities exhibit intriguing behaviors, where larger uniform nanoparticles offer more space for electron waves, consequently influencing their optical characteristics. Conversely, the confinement of subatomic particles within nanoparticles leads to observable quantized effects, significantly impacting their optical manifestations.   Discussion and Inquiry Second, delving into the foundational principles of quantum chemistry, we often lean on established concepts like Heisenberg\'s uncertainty principle. This principle underscores the profound influence of momentum and position on entities at the quantum scale. Size, in essence, is a mathematical expression of position across a dimension or multiple dimensions.   However, what if we were to extend our analysis beyond the size-induced, and quantized-light dependent optical traits of nanoparticles? What if we were to consider their intrinsic and resultant momentum, and how this could affect their optical and temperature properties? Might such an approach engender a spectrum of radiation with tuned multi-components? Could we better understand and tune the quantized light absorption of colloidal particles through an analysis of their intrinsic and resultant momenta and how that is affect by quantized light? Could we tailor these findings to meet diverse research and clinical needs and demands?   With these questions raised, this beckons us to venture beyond a conventional focus on position or size as a main parameter to adjust in pursuit of understanding quantum dot applications, phenomena, and behavior. As scientists, it may serve us well to consider the profound implications of how these nanoparticles (quantum dots), potentially adjust or change their behavior within the context of an input of quantized light, when possessing an intrinsic or resultant momentum.   Reference 1.      Robinson, J.
