An MIT Learn Podcast. Every day we interact with countless unique materials, technologies, and ideas. Most of us never give a second thought to many of them, but a lucky few of us get the chance to learn how fascinating these seemingly mundane topics can actually be. On this podcast, we speak with some of those folks and get a glimpse into what makes these materials and other topics so interesting, the science that makes it all work, and perhaps will give us a reason to take that second look. At MIT, John Harrold, PhD is an Instructor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and Open Learning DELTA Scientist.
