Em Meurer talks to researchers to find out what gets them excited about learning and make understanding research fun!I want to create content that makes huge (and tbh boring to read) published studies more accessible to non-researchers without specialized knowledge. We all benefit from research, so we deserve an opportunity to understand it too!

    Episode 03 with Laser Propulsion Engineer Hayden Morgan

    This week I learned that lasers are super cool and can super cool! I sat down with Hayden Morgan, a grad student at Texas A&M, where he’s studying new propulsion methods for deep space travel. So in this episode, I learned about physics and chemistry, how cool rockets are, and all of the ways that we’re shooting ourselves through space. We also talked lasers, vacuums, what Bill Nye is up to, figuring out the best ways to work, how to make group projects suck less, being excited about what you do even when you don’t think you’re good at it, and so much more!!
