Emerging Technologies Episode 3: Fusion Energy

Welcome to Carry the Two, the podcast about how math and statistics impact the world around us from the Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation. In this season of Carry the Two we are going to be examining how math and stats is helping scientists, engineers, and industry develop new and emerging technologies. Our third episode is all about Fusion Energy. Hosts Sam Hansen and Sadie Witkowski are joined by Andrew Christlieb, Professor of mathematics and computational science and engineering at Michigan State University and director for the Center of Hierarchical and Robust Modeling for Non-Equilibrium Transport, and Cristina Rea, principal research scientist here at the Plasma Science and Fusion Center at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and leader of the Disruption Studies Group.
