🚨 NEW POD ALERT 🚨 Sunil Pulletikurti, Ph.D., is NASA Postdoctoral Program Fellow conducting research on the chemical origins of life. Essentially, he's investigating how small molecules become parts of larger molecules -- for example, how an amino acid becomes part of a protein and other cellular transformation. In this conversation with host Michael Holtz, Pulletikurti takes a deep dive into his research, the time he spent at NASA before his postdoctoral fellowship, what sparked his interest in science, the struggle of coming from an impoverished childhood in India to being part of a global research enterprise, and how the fellowship will impact his career.

ORAU coordinates the evaluation of DOE former workers through the National Supplemental Screening Program (NSSP). Through the NSSP, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) offers free customized medical screenings to their former workers who may have been exposed to hazardous substances on the job site.
