Hi.
A lot of my Gen Z students who are interested in industrial careers, or any kind of engineering, tell me they were inspired by the show How It's Made.
It's a good show, and what I'm about to describe occurs in just a handful of episodes, but I think it presents an opportunity to exert a degree of influence toward promoting the culture of safety.
There are a lot of details glossed over for proprietary reasons. Once in a while they talk about formulation development then yadayadayada over scale-up.
I was wondering if there would be interested among us to send a petition to the show encouraging them to add a comment to such segments addressing that scale-up itself is more involved than, say, multiply by 1000 and go.
What do we think? It might be silly, but I thought it was at least worth considering and discussing.
So...?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
-Heather
