What if we could use water droplets to “pull bread out of air” and drive agriculture? What if we could use a drop of our sweat to understand our health? On this riveting episode of Let’s Talk Chemistry, hosts Yeongseo Son and Olivia Lambertson talk about their interview with Dr. Richard Zare, a Marguerite Blake Wilber Professor of Natural Science and a Professor of Chemistry at Stanford University. Awarded the Wolf Prize in Chemistry by a unanimous decision in 2005, Dr. Zare is known for his applications of laser techniques in complex molecular mechanisms and analytical chemistry. He gives us a glimpse of his recent discoveries on water droplets, his honest motivations for his career pursuits, and his endless love for humans and science. We hope you enjoy!
