What happens after a PhD, but before a scientist is fully established? At Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, that in-between stage is treated as a proving ground. LLNL postdocs are given rare facilities, hard problems, mentorship, career development time, and a community built around collaboration. The result is more than professional development. It’s the moment a scientist starts becoming the person others look to for answers. Guests featured (in order of appearance): Tomi Akindele - Systems Modeling and Evaluation Group Leader, Physics Division, LLNL Ted Baumann - Chemist and Postdoc Program Lead, LLNL -- Big Ideas Lab is a Mission.org original series.
