Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn’t lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.)

S1 E4 - The Blue Sky Podcast
Evolution provided bacteria with a mechanism to overcome our antibiotics, and each time we introduce a new antibiotic, they get faster at becoming resistant to it. At the same time, it can take 14 years and billions of dollars to bring a new one to market.
Angela Violi, professor of mechanical engineering, is leading a coalition of chemical engineers and biologists trying to change the game by developing antibiotics in a new way. They want to design nanoparticles to exploit weaknesses in the target pathogens. Not only could they work better, they could make it to market faster.
The Blue Sky Podcast is an award winning limited series from RE: Engineering Radio and the University of Michigan College of Engineering. We’re following four research projects in critically important areas of global consequence.
