This is an unguarded "open mic" type event I did at the American Chemical Society National Meeting in Chicago. The topic was how to write a book and how to (and not to) be successful as a podcast guest and interviewee on TV and the radio. My name is Darren Lipomi, professor and chair, Department of Chemical and Sustainability Engineering, University of Rochester.

What I've learned as associate dean at UC San Diego and department chair at University of Rochester. I recently sat down with a colleague, Emily, for an interview tied to her doctoral research on leadership in higher education. Specifically, the pathways and training that prepare faculty to lead. Her work centers on three questions: how department chairs and program directors describe their preparation for leadership, what challenges they encounter navigating faculty management, communication, and administrative work, and what training or support they find most helpful for success. What follows are my responses, drawn from my own experience as a department chair.My name is Darren Lipomi, professor and chair, Department of Chemical and Sustainability Engineering, University of Rochester.

Duke University's professor Ben Wiley shares insights on his journey in science and startups in consumer electronics, 3D printing, and biomedical implants. Then, he and I discuss using AI in teaching and research.

Lately I've been doing a lot of early-morning AM radio spots in local markets: 700WLW in Cincinnati, WCUB in Wisconsin. I posted "my side" of what these radio hits look like. The prep, the environment, the difficulty of coming up with answers which are do not sound canned. I think science, particularly in the US, needs defenders. I'm just experimenting with the best way to do this and letting you in on the process.

There's a ton of controversy around the use of A.I. in the classroom. The New York Times just published an article effectively saying that indiscriminate dumping of A.I. resources into the California State University system was no good, while at the same time (now Dr.) Robert Ramji and I were teaching using an A.I. tutor based on a book that we ourselves wrote (Intro to Nanoengineering, Royal Society of Chemistry). We found that the results were mixed and the students' engagement with the tutor and their feelings about it were determined by how its use was framed by the instructors. Robert, along with myself and my colleague David Fenning, wrote an article about our experiences with the tutor in Chemistry of Materials. Here, I contrast some of the findings with those of the NY Times article.Robert Ramji, David Fenning, Darren Lipomi: Chemistry of Materials articlehttps://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.chemmater.6c00883New York Times articlehttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/01/magazine/ai-university-college-california.html?smid=url-shareFirst, please consider supporting my public advocacy for science by purchasing my book, from $9.99 and up, here:https://a.co/d/0akwfp3y Available for free for Spotify subscribers here:https://open.spotify.com/show/3uEY9jOwopxCyZ6DHAFkLE?si=23d46c1752bb419e

It's "pub week" for my book, Science Nonfiction: Behind the Scenes in University Research. I don't have a paywall, so if you've enjoyed my work or found it useful, I think you'll enjoy the book. Here, I talk a bit about it, and then read a few pages describing my PhD defense in George Whitesides lab at Harvard. Available in print and eBook and audiobook from all major distributors. Here it is on Amazon https://a.co/d/08XFxt3Q and Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/3uEY9jOwopxCyZ6DHAFkLE?si=09745dff528444a0
