Episode 6 - Giulia Palermo: Reimagining scientific creativity, the RNA revolution, and truly multiscale systems
Manage episode 408923107 series 3555369
In the sixth episode, Giulia Palermo and I discuss the challenges of studying truly multiscale biomolecular systems, such as the CRISPR/Cas9 complex she famously got involved with. While such problems can take us way out of our comfort zones, they also provide us with clear pathways to innovative and transformative science, something very much needed in the new revolutionary era of RNA biology. In this vein, Giulia also reflects on the nature of scientific creativity, the component that goes beyond our formal training but that can eventually spell the difference between a groundbreaking discovery and run-of-the-mill research.
