How do scientists get inspired? What drives them to keep discovering? Where do they find motivation? When do they do their best thinking? Why do they keep pushing the limits of knowledge? We’re sharing first person accounts about those special moments in the lives of scientists that we call “eureka moments.” Featuring Dr. Martin Grovel (University of Miami), Dr. Brian Haus (University of Miami), Tamay Özgökmen (University of Miami), Dr. Kristen Thyng (Texas A&M University), and Dr. Mandy Joye (University of Georgia).
