The Quanta Podcast Quanta Magazine Exploring the distant universe, the insides of cells, the abstractions of math, the complexity of information itself, and much more, The Quanta Podcast is a tour of the frontier between the known and the unknown. In each episode, Quanta Magazine Editor-in-Chief Samir Patel speaks with the minds behind the award-winning publication to navigate through some of the most important and mind-expanding questions in science and math. Quanta specifically covers fundamental research — driven by curiosity, discovery and the overwhelming desire to know why and how. Join us every Tuesday for a stimulating conversation about the biggest ideas and the tiniest details.(If you've been a fan of the Quanta Science Podcast, it will continue here. You'll see those episodes marked as audio edition episodes every two weeks.) EyeTech Digital Trends Iain Livingstone Welcome to EyeTech Digital Trends, sort of hosted by Dr. Iain Livingstone but presented by more interesting, non-existent robotic abstractions. In this first (and possibly only) episode, AI attempts to turn an MD thesis on novel ways to test infant acuity (not a page-turner) into an audio teaching experience. While NotebookAI promises wonders, we’re also questioning its accuracy, usefulness, and whether it can make even the driest of theses sound remotely exciting. Can AI transform medical education, or is it too soon to tell? Tune in to explore this innovative, yet uncertain, frontier. The Special Generalist Podcast Peyton Kringlie The Special Generalist is a podcast that plays on real world concepts and practice and talks about their abstractions. Nautilus Goat Rodeo Nautilus takes a story from the magazine and explores it in sound. There are often lovely turns, interludes, and broader abstractions--characteristic of our innovative science media. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
