Combustion and Fluids in London with Dr. Andrea Giusti

In this episode, I interview Dr. Andrea Giusti, Associate Professor of Thermofluids at Imperial College London. We follow his journey from an early fascination with Ferrari’s Formula 1 cars, to his work in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) in Florence, Italy, to his research on combustion at the University of Cambridge, and ultimately to his current role in London. Dr. Giusti also shares what drew him to research in the first place, offering valuable insights into the mindset of a scientist. This episode is packed with perspectives for anyone interested in aircraft engines, aerodynamics, and Formula 1!

Nanotechnology to Tesla, Apple, and Beyond

In this episode, I sit down with Hiren Kumar, an engineer from India who has built an incredible career journey, starting with race cars in India, moving through grad school in Texas, to Tesla, and now at Zipline, where he’s shaping the future of drones. Hiren reflects on the lessons he’s learned along the way, including the unique energy of working alongside highly motivated people—an experience he believes everyone should have at least once.
