#45 Can Living Neurons Change the Future of Computing? - Ewelina Kurtys

Join me on The Randall Osché Podcast as I sit down with Ewelina Kurtys, a strategist and executive whose career has taken her from neuroscience and brain imaging into artificial intelligence, biocomputing, and emerging technology.Ewelina shares how her curiosity about the brain led her into science, why she eventually stepped outside the academic world, and what she discovered when she began applying her scientific background to business.We also explore her work with FinalSpark, where researchers are working toward an ambitious idea: using living neurons to build a new generation of energy-efficient computers. Ewelina explains why biological neurons process information so efficiently, what a future bio server could look like, and why solving the challenge of teaching neurons to learn could have implications far beyond computing.Along the way, we talk about psychology, playing to your natural strengths, controlling what you can control, changing the way you think, and why success is always influenced by circumstances we didn't choose.What you’ll Learn:Why following your natural preferences can give you more energy and an advantage in your work.How living neurons could offer a radically different approach to energy-efficient computing.Why knowledge and technical ability are only part of succeeding outside academia.Why changing your thinking takes repetition, reflection, and the right sources.How luck, circumstances, attitude, and hard work all play a role in success.If you're curious about the future of technology, the power of understanding yourself, and what happens when neuroscience meets computing, you'll find plenty to think about in this episode.Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Platform:Apple PodcastsSpotifyYouTubeFind Ewelina:WebsiteLinkedInDiscordFind Randall:InstagramTikTokLinkedInWebsiteSubscribe to Our Newsletter for More Inspiring StoriesAbout The Randall Osché Podcast:Every episode is a conversation with remarkable people who share their unique stories, challenges, triumphs, and lessons learned.
