Episode 33-2025 Rewind and Recap

December 29, 2025 • Behind Our Science • Season 2025 • Episode 33

Welcome to Episode 33 of Behind Our Science! As we close out the year, Roberto, Vik, and Daisy come together to reflect on a fantastic season of science, outreach, and discovery.

In this episode, we share a little bit about where we are now and rewind to discuss the highlights of our last 7 episodes—from NIH policies and microplastics to science-based board games. The hosts break down their personal favorites of the year, including the Science Education & Outreach episode, Organ on a Chip, and Corneal Bioengineering.

We also take a moment to discuss what we are grateful for this year, our experience at ASIP, and the importance of Hispanic Heritage Month.

🎉 Special Guest Segment:
Stay tuned for an inspiring interview with Robin Isabella Mota! At just 10 years old, this El Paso, TX native is the Founder and CEO of ThermoGuard. She joins us to discuss her district science fair-winning invention—a thermosensitive wristband that detects fevers in kids—and shares her thoughts on her future in STEM.
