We are excited to announce the launch of the Milieux Podcast, our brand-new platform for exploring the diverse and dynamic research ecosystem of the Milieux Institute!
As podcasting continues to grow as a powerful tool for academic engagement, we’ve decided to give it a try ourselves. Hosted by TAG coordinator Marc Lajeunesse, the first season of the Milieux Podcast will take listeners on a journey through the many facets of the institute, featuring interviews with members.
The first episode features an interview with Dr. Bart Simon, founding member and current Director of the Institute. As the series unfolds, faculty and students from diverse research clusters will be invited to share insights into their fields, providing information on how to get involved in the diverse projects and initiatives at the Institute. Interwoven throughout the series, interviews with staff members will offer a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the Institute’s dynamic daily operations, revealing the collaborative spirit that drives Milieux’s interdisciplinary approach.
Whether it’s learning about the research conducted at the institute, innovative collaborations, or memorable projects, the Milieux Podcast offers an insider’s view of what makes Milieux this unique and vibrant research institute.
