From Quantum Teleportation to Virtual Cells with Samantha Davis | fAQ podcast S3 E7

<p>Next up on the fAQ Podcast, Tai-Danae Bradley sits down with Samantha Davis, a postdoc resident on the AI Simulation team at SandboxAQ. Samantha shares her remarkable scientific journey, which spans from earning a PhD in physics at Caltech, where she built quantum teleportation networks, to her current work building virtual cell simulation engines for computational biology.</p><p>But her path to these incredible achievements was wonderfully unconventional. Despite a lifelong passion for physics nurtured by her scientist parents, Samantha candidly shares her early struggles with standard classroom learning and exams, which nearly led her to drop out of college. After discovering she had ADHD and a form of dyslexia, she realized her brain was perfectly suited for unstructured, experimental laboratory research where she could carve her own path.</p><p>We also dive into what it is like to navigate viral science. Samantha opens up about the intense media frenzy and academic scrutiny she faced after her rigorous research on simulated wormholes was published in Nature and went viral on social media. </p><p>Tune in to hear how Samantha transitioned her mindset from open-ended academic curiosity to product-driven industry deliverables, how she balances it all with adventurous travels like hiking the pristine lakes of the Andes, and why she believes the deepest scientific discoveries happen at the intersection of fields. </p><p><strong>Links</strong></p><ul><li>Learn more about SandboxAQ’s AI Simulation team here: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.sandboxaq.com/solutions/drug-discovery">https://www.sandboxaq.com/solutions/drug-discovery</a> </li><li>Find Samantha on LinkedIn: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/samantha-isabel-davis-965a23144/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/samantha-isabel-davis-965a23144/</a> </li></ul><p><strong>About this podcast</strong></p><p>This podcast is hosted by Tai-Danae Bradley and features the stories of amazing people working in science and technology at SandboxAQ and beyond.

A Glimpse into the AI Era of Math with Daniel Litt | fAQ podcast S3 E6

<p>In this episode of the fAQ Podcast, host Tai-Danae Bradley sits down with Daniel Litt, an assistant professor of mathematics at the University of Toronto, to discuss the rapidly evolving intersection of AI and mathematics. Bypassing the public speculation and social media hype, this conversation provides a practical look at some ways large language models are actively being used in high-level mathematical research. Daniel shares his daily workflow, detailing his transition from testing early AI models in a Dungeons and Dragons game to currently utilizing advanced tools for literature search, "vibe coding," and finding counterexamples. The discussion also covers the new challenge of "proof abundance," practical tips for prompting AI effectively, and how these powerful tools might force a necessary restructuring of mathematical education and the academic publishing system. </p><p><strong>Links</strong></p><ul><li>Learn more about Daniel here: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.daniellitt.com">https://www.daniellitt.com</a> </li><li>Follow Daniel on X: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/littmath">https://x.com/littmath</a> </li></ul><p><strong>About this podcast</strong></p><p>This podcast is hosted by Tai-Danae Bradley and features the stories of amazing people working in science and technology at SandboxAQ and beyond.

Can Visual Storytelling Bridge the Deep Tech Divide? Jonathon Corbiere | fAQ podcast S3 E5

<p>In this episode of the fAQ podcast, Tai-Danae sits down with Jonathan Corbiere, the co-founder and CEO of Thought Cafe, an award-winning animation and design studio, to discuss the crucial role of visual storytelling in the age of deep tech.</p><p>Jon shares his fascinating journey from being a kid with dreams of becoming an astronaut—a path unexpectedly changed by a colorblindness diagnosis—to becoming a master visual translator for complex scientific ideas. Tai-Danae and Jon dive into how his early love for Michael Crichton and Star Trek shaped his worldview, and why he believes that today's science fiction is rapidly becoming our science reality.</p><p>They also discuss a profound realization Jon had after hearing a lecture by David Suzuki: why it shouldn't just be the scientist's job to communicate the reality of crises and technological breakthroughs to the public. Plus, Jon gives us a sneak peek into Amplified Intelligence, his highly creative new podcast that features a tuned AI agent as an active co-host!</p><p>Tune in for an inspiring conversation about lifelong learning, the power of communication, and why we should start thinking of AI not as "artificial," but as an amplification of the human spirit.</p><p><strong>Links</strong></p><ul><li>Follow Jon on LinkedIn: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://ca.linkedin.com/in/jonathoncorbiere">https://ca.linkedin.com/in/jonathoncorbiere</a> </li><li>Subscribe to Thought Cafe’s YouTube Channel: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/user/ThoughtBubbler">https://www.youtube.com/user/ThoughtBubbler</a> </li><li>View Thought Cafe’s work for SandboxAQ: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.thoughtcafe.ca/sandboxaq">https://www.thoughtcafe.ca/sandboxaq</a> </li></ul><p><strong>About this podcast</strong></p><p>This podcast is hosted by Tai-Danae Bradley and features the stories of amazing people working in science and technology at SandboxAQ and beyond.
