Some of the most exciting and groundbreaking work being done at the forefront of science and technology is happening where disciplines intersect.
One example we came across involves a young researcher at Harvard who’s just two years out of her undergraduate program in astronomy. Michelle Borkin found that using 3D visualization software commonly used in medicine could also reveal the hidden secrets of the cosmos. She’s a research assistant at Harvards's Initiative in Innovative Computing, where she's helping to pioneer a new field called "astronomical medicine." And she joins Word of Mouth to explain just what this field entails.
