Pushing Boundaries with Dr. Thomas R Verny
Dynamic interviews with established and emerging scientists, scholars and artists who work at the cutting edge of their disciplines and whose accomplishments I value. To me the world is a laboratory of ideas and I try to find the best, most intriguing of these, then illuminate them with a bright and generous light. I talk with my guests about the things they care about, how they got there, where they are now and where they are headed. I am interested in the science and the scientist, the contributions the person has made and the person making these contributions. Always looking for how to better understand the complex world we live in.
