Accelerating the Discovery of Abiotic Vesicles

In this episode, host Tan Deleon is joined by Sarah Maurer, professor of chemistry at Central Connecticut State University, to share insights into the work she is doing on the origins of life, why the public should be aware of abiotic vesicles, how artificial intelligence (AI) has accelerated the discovery and study of abiotic vesicles, and how Sarah knew she wanted to be a scientist while still in kindergarten (spoiler alert: Albert Einstein's hairstyle had something to do with it). 

What is Learning & Living STEMM in Connecticut?

The Academy is a nonprofit created by a special act of the Connecticut General Assembly in 1976, with key areas of work including advising and informing the people and the state of Connecticut on science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (collectively known as STEMM).

This podcast is key to sharing with the residents of our state interesting STEMM developments and increasing visibility for the state’s innovators and entrepreneurs, businesses and industries, academics, our talented workforce, and those doing STEMM-related work in public service.
