Ep 74 - From water to lasers: an engineering odyssey with Shasvat Rathod

Picture this: Shas started with a master's in water purification, dove into the world of engineering as a lab manager, flirted with the idea of becoming a medical scientist, and finally found his calling in the cutting-edge field of direct laser writing. Along the way, he has developed a passion for sharing these experiences and the incredible science behind them. In this nanolife episode, we'll explore the twists and turns of Shas' scientific careers, demystify complex concepts, and chat with him on his take of the road less traveled.
