  • Resumen

  • Carry the Two pulls back the curtain to reveal the mathematical and statistical gears that turn the world. We’re the show for people who enjoy discovering hidden elements that impact our lives in the most unexpected ways, and math is certainly one of those! We are a curiosity-driven podcast that looks to find unique perspectives from the fields of mathematics and statistics. We use stories to convey how mathematical research drives the world around us, with each episode tackling a different topic. This can be anything from modeling how bees in a swarm make group decisions to how we can use textual analysis to reveal surprising changes in policy documents. You can also find Carry the Two on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Google Play, and Spotify. Carry the Two is hosted by Sadie Witkowski and Ian Martin. Audio production by Tyler Damme. Music is from Blue Dot Sessions.

  • Frank Wolak on Engineering and Electricity Market Design
    Mar 11 2025

    Welcome to Carry the Two, the podcast about how math and statistics impact the world around us from the Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation. While we’re in between our more in-depth seasons, we like to bring you something a little different in mini-season format. And for this mini season, we are going to highlight some of the amazing researchers who have presented at IMSI over the past year. Our third guest is Frank Wolak, a professor in the Department of Economics at Stanford University who teaches courses in energy and environmental economics and has been involved in the electricity industry and power systems for 25 years.. Frank joined us at IMSI for a workshop on The Architecture of Green Energy Systems: The Underlying Problem and Its Challenges where he presented a talk titled The Engineering Economics of Low Carbon Electricity Market Design. Host Sam Hansen joined Frank for a talk about the research in his talk and Frank’s time at IMSI.

  • Maria Chan on ML for Material Structures
    Feb 12 2025

    Welcome to Carry the Two, the podcast about how math and statistics impact the world around us from the Institute for Mathematical and Statistical Innovation. While we’re in between our more in-depth seasons, we like to bring you something a little different in mini-season format. And for this mini season, we are going to highlight some of the amazing researchers who have presented at IMSI over the past year. Our second guest is Maria Chan,a scientist at Argonnne National Laboratory working at the Center for Nanoscale Materials who focuses on computational research involving materials in chemistry using a combination of physics, artificial intelligence and machine learning. Maria joined us at IMSI for a workshop on Machine Learning in Electronic Structure Theory where she presented a talk titled Theory-informed AI/ML for Microscopy & Spectroscopy. Host Sam Hansen joined Maria for a talk about the research in her talk and Maria’s time at IMSI.
