Nanotech (Mini-Podcast)

My other headline was:
A Research Tech on Nanotech; Minipodcast with Zach Feiger

This Mini-Podcast was inspired by frequent commenter Charles. His question (for biology Research Tech Zach Feiger) on Nanotechnology lead to the edited discussion which appears below.




This is the second of two interviews with Zach Feiger the first is available here

Studying Cancer, Flourecent Cells and the Life of a Research Tech

Zach's job involves the tiny tiny proteins that move human cells.  He stops by North and Clark to tell us about his work, and why its important to make proteins glow in the dark.




"You shine this infrared light on the whole body and the (cancer cells) light up."
