85 | How laziness invites discovery – Robert Root-Bernstein
Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/n...
Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/4dXV...
AI is amazing but the game is still the same: we need to make a discovery and AI won't do that for you..
So NYC Postdocs, join us Thursday for this month's Postdoc Night Science event! We're meeting at a bar near Union Square for some science buddy "speed dating".
RSVP: tinyurl.com/3t5us6hp!
Scientists on moving past being stuck: "Basically I'm just a lazy son of a bi*ch" – they would play music or paint and at some point that would free their mind up enough that they'd get past their block and then come back to the problem.
– Root-Bernstein on the Night Science Podcast
🔥New Night Science Podcast episode! The great Robert Root-Bernstein argues that successful scientists do not treat their “lazy” creative pursuits, such as painting, music or writing, as distractions from science, but integrate them into one coherent creative life.

Are you a professor / group leader looking for a course to teach that would be extremely welcomed by graduate students & postdocs? Come train with us in how to teach the tools of the creative scientific process in our European train the trainer event in Heidelberg.

Night science welcomes beautiful ideas
Day science welcomes ugly facts
The Night Science Podcast is the story of needing both

Doing good science is 90% finding a science buddy to constantly talk to about the project. The Postdoc Night Science NYC club met last week in a Manhattan bar for 5 rounds of scientific buddy speed-dating discussions. Contact me with questions on how to organize such an event in your city!
A crucial part of the project actually takes place in the exploration phase, where we must turn off judgment.. It was a pleasure to be on the "Better than Your Creator: on AI and Creativity" Podcast with Shirly Coifman to talk about the creative scientific process.
