I gotta admit it's surreal to read this, but it also makes me so proud of @lmillernpr, @latifnasser, @SorenWheeler and the beautiful people at @Radiolab

One year after taking over the beloved radio show from Jad Abumrad, Lulu Miller and Latif Nasser (gently) make it their own.

New job posting at @MorePerfect! We're looking for a senior producer with a smart editorial mind, project management skills, and the potential to become a people manager as well. And who loves nerding out about the law. I know you're out there, nerds!

Amazing! Congrats @big_data_kane!
Update: Our paper on #Gattaca made the cover of the December 2022 issue of GENETICS (@GeneticsGSA). (The fun & ironic part: if you asked me 25 years ago, there are many pubs I would have thought I'd make the cover of--e.g., @TheSource--before I would a scientific journal.)

Audio people: I’m trying to take an audio file (of someone speaking) and convert it into a series of sine wave partials. Anyone know of a max for live device that does that?

This past weekend, @KarlaMurthy (my wife) premiered her film in Youngstown Ohio. After seeing her work so insanely hard for 5 years to get to this point, these pictures just...wow. My heart swells.
Such an honor to be part of the festival. It was so great to be back in Youngstown!

Had fun working with @AbinavSKrish on this. Podcast companies, pay attention to this young man. He's the real deal.
At Vanderbilt, activists made their big debut by interrupting a major school event in 2021. In this episode @AbhinavSKrish and @JadAbumrad listen to @College_Voices' reporting about this movement and discuss how students can create similar audio stories. https://t.co/9AT5hh9GB6
