    Once a Scientist

    Once A Scientist is a podcast about how science is changing and the people changing with it.

    Hosted by scientist and entrepreneur Nick Edwards, the show features conversations with researchers, founders, technologists, investors, and operators working at the edges of biology, AI, automation, robotics, and drug discovery.

    Guests talk about the technologies reshaping scientific work, the problems they believe are worth solving, and the often-unplanned paths that brought them there. Along the way, Nick explores a bigger question: as machines take on more of the work of reading, analyzing, designing, and eventually executing experiments, what becomes possible for science—and what becomes more important for scientists?

    Once A Scientist is about where science is going, who is building it, and how the next generation of scientists can find their place in it.
