Listen "Episode 17: Weird Science"
Episode Synopsis
The Grifty crew was joined by Dr. Nini Munoz to talk about all things grifty. Dr. Nini is an electrical engineer and data scientist specializing in sensor design and integration. Her expertise ranges from inertial navigation systems to biosensors, and she integrates AI for pattern recognition and systems risk analysis. She completed her doctorate at Cornell University, where her research at the intersection of electrical engineering and microbiology focused on designing neural interfaces. Nini is passionate about teaching and science communication. She has built a social media platform, @niniandthebrain, to make complex topics more accessible and understandable for a broad audience. Nini offers a data-driven approach. She teaches people how to critically appraise data by examining flawed studies, providing datasets, and demonstrating how data can be analyzed and manipulated to fit a predetermined conclusion, often going as far as replicating study findings. Given the amount of health misinformation out there, Nini also hones on tackling some aspects of pseudoscience in the wellness world, particularly those pertaining to the use of technology to add legitimacy and credibility to their claims. You can find her on social platforms by visiting @niniandthebrain or by visiting https://www.niniandthebrain.com
