Applying aerospace concepts to biomedicine, ship building and particle research
Here is one incredible journey of an aerospace engineer who has been applying aerospace concepts (mostly fluid dynamics and allied areas) in biomedicine to model blood flows, in ship building to test new propeller designs and now in a particle research lab to study the motion of high speed particles and their trajectories after collisions.
Listen in for a deep dive on how to find such off-beat opportunities, what kind of skillset to develop and essentially how to think with an aerospace mindset.
Suryakiran Peravalli is a currently a research fellow at DESY (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron) which is a particle research laboratory in Germany. He has a background in aerospace engineering and has been applying his deep knowledge across a variety of fields from biomedicine to ship building and now particle research.
