The Human Side of Science: Chasing the Unknown with Joe Howlett | fAQ podcast S3 E11

Saison 3 · Épisode 11

mardi 25 août 2026 • Durée 43:49

In this episode of the fAQ podcast, Tai-Danae Bradley sits down with Joe Howlett, a science journalist at Scientific American and former astroparticle physicist, to discuss his fascinating transition from experimental physics to science storytelling.

Joe takes us inside his former life as a physicist, detailing his PhD research at Columbia University where he hunted for "WIMPs"—the elusive particles thought to make up dark matter. He breaks down the mind-boggling reality that all known matter accounts for only one-sixth of the universe, and openly shares the emotional toll of a 40-year global physics search that has yielded negative results. We discuss how these unanswered questions led him to pivot away from a postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford to pursue a career in science journalism.

Whether he is learning to make science "dance on the page" under the mentorship of legendary writers, uncovering historical math scandals, or preparing his latest essay on the universe's unanswerable questions, Joe's relentless curiosity is truly inspiring.

The Future of Cardiac Care with Ethan Pratt | fAQ podcast S3 E9

Saison 3 · Épisode 9

mardi 28 juillet 2026 • Durée 45:53

Ethan Pratt, Head of Engineering at SandboxAQ’s AQMed division, joins Tai-Danae Bradley for a conversation about building heart-health technology that can meet clinicians where they are: in the fast, messy reality of the emergency room.

In this episode, Ethan explains AQMed’s work on magnetocardiography, a technique designed to capture the heart’s magnetic signals and help address one of medicine’s toughest everyday challenges: evaluating chest-pain patients in the ER’s diagnostic “gray zone.” He shares why the team has focused so intensely on real hospital workflows, how an “algorithmic shield” helps separate the heart’s signal from ambient magnetic noise, and why getting prototypes into real clinical settings matters more than waiting for perfection in the lab.

The conversation also traces Ethan’s unconventional path into medtech, from rebuilding a 1967 Camaro and studying physics at Cal Poly to earning a PhD at Cornell and eventually discovering that his strengths lay not in abstract theory alone, but in building experiments, devices, and teams that work in the real world. Along the way, he reflects on math anxiety, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the guiding principle that has shaped both his career and his leadership style: start with what you know.
