The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Inside Science Interview Series

Welcome, The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Inside Science Interview Series, on radio and podcast. We are broadcasting just outside of Washington DC.  I’m Paul Vogelzang, and we have another groundbreaking episode of our show, where we delve into the lives and achievements of individuals who are not just surviving but thriving in the golden years of their lives. Today, we have a special treat for you—a narrative that’s not just about science but about shattering glass ceilings. Are you ready to be inspired?

You know, when we talk about physics and astronomy, names like Einstein and Hawking often come to mind. Our guest today, Smithsonian Associate Shohini Ghose, appearing at Smithsonian Associates coming up…please check out our website for more details; Smithsonian Associate Shohini Ghose will answer the questions about why and how often we hear about Henrietta Leavitt, who helped us understand the scale of the universe? Or Mary Golda Ross, the Cherokee aerospace scientist with a hand in the moon landings? Not often enough, I’d say, and it’s been going on since, well, for a long time, and certainly since Sputnik.

That’s our guest today, Smithsonian Associate Shohini Ghose, reading from her new book,  Her Space, Her Time: How Trailblazing Women Scientists Decoded the Hidden Universe. Dr. Shohini Ghose is a Professor of Physics and Computer Science at Wilfrid Laurier University in Canada, a TED Senior Fellow, and the NSERC Chair for Women in Science and Engineering.  So, whether you’re a budding scientist, a lifelong learner, or someone who appreciates the power of a good story, stay tuned. This episode promises to be a cosmic journey through time, space, and the indomitable human spirit. Please join me in welcoming to The Not Old Better Show, Smithsonian Associates Inside Science Interview Series, on radio and podcast, Smithsonian Associate Dr. Shohini Ghose.
