Manage episode 371534362 series 3368760
Have you ever noticed that the sequoia trees in California have continued to survive forest fires? What if we told you that they had a natural flame retardant that scientists are attempting to recreate? On this episode of Let’s Talk Chemistry, hosts Yeongseo Son, Nicholas Molitor, and Nina Deng talk about their interview with Dr. Miriam Rafailovich, a Distinguished Professor of Materials Science and Chemical Engineering at Stony Brook University. We talk about the importance of material chemistry, how science can have unexpected collaborations, and using nature to explore the possibilities of chemistry. We hope you enjoy! If you would like to know more about Dr. Miriam Rafailovich, you can check out her research or reach her by email at miriam.rafailovich@stonybrook.edu.
