Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn’t lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.) Hosted and produced by award winning science journalist Rose Eveleth, each episode combines audio drama and journalism to go deep on potential tomorrows, and uncovers what those futures might re ...

DNA science. Artificial intelligence. Smartphones and 3D printers. Science and technology have transformed the world we live in. But how did we get here? It wasn’t by accident. Well, sometimes it was. It was also the result of hard work, teamwork, and competition. And incredibly surprising moments. Hosted by bestselling author Steven Johnson (“How We Got To Now”), American Innovations uses immersive scenes to tell the stories of the scientists, engineers, and ordinary people behind the great ...

We humans could have a bright future ahead of us that lasts billions of years. But we have to survive the next 200 years first. Join Josh Clark of Stuff You Should Know for a 10-episode deep dive that explores the future of humanity and finds dangers we have never encountered before lurking just ahead. And if we humans are alone in the universe, if we don't survive intelligent life dies out with us too.

The field of high-performance computing (HPC) currently faces dual challenges: important technical problems that require a skilled workforce and the need to recruit more computational researchers, especially those from underrepresented communities. This conversation with Lois Curfman McInnes of Argonne National Laboratory examines both the complexity in building scientific software and the work needed to build the HPC workforce of the future.
You'll meet:
Lois Curfman McInnes is a senior computational scientist in the mathematics and computer science division at Argonne National Laboratory. She served as deputy director for the software technology focus are of the U.S. Department of Energy's Exascale Computing Project and completed her Ph.D. in applied mathematics at the University of Virginia.
