Podcast guests: master's students, doctoral students and researchers

How can small systems create big innovations? In this episode of Fikasnack about the future of education, we visit the poster fair at the Division of Micro and Nanosystems (MST) , where master's students, doctoral students and researchers showcase their latest projects. Podcast host Marcus Lithander chats with Professor Wouter Metsola van der Wijngaart, whose research spans lab-on-a-chip technology, biosensors, and biohybrid microsystems, and who has co-founded several companies within KTH Innovation. We also meet Thomas Winkler, researcher and initiator of the poster fair, who explains how the event strengthens collaboration between research groups and inspires new ideas.

About the podcast

Fika chats on the future of education continue every other week, featuring guests from within or outside KTH for knowledge sharing, exchange of experiences, and inspiration for educational development. The podcasts are usually recorded live, but occasionally episodes are pre-recorded. And sometimes, when we visit different KTH environments, the podcasts are best enjoyed as video podcasts (on KTH Play or YouTube).

Marcus Lithander chats over coffee (fika) with guests from or outside KTH about the future of education in general and our change programme " Future Education at KTH " in particular.
