Engineering the human machine

What do you get if you cross an engineer with a love for tiny blood vessels? Shayn Peirce-Cottler: a professor at the University of Virginia studying the role of microvasculature in disease. She's looking at how we can engineer treatments from raw materials including fat cells from liposuction!

We discuss novel technologies, Women in STEM, and midlife collaboration crises.
