Our 2019 Fellow Jyotirmoy Mandal shares his innovative interdisciplinary work, which has the potential to cool our ever-warming cities in the face of climate change.

This inspirational talk was recorded at our 2024 Interdisciplinary Science Showcase, a highlight of the first Schmidt Science Fellows Interdisciplinary Science Summit held in Toronto.  The event united a wider community of interdisciplinary science supporters and guests with our Fellowship, sponsors, and Program Team.

Throughout the evening event, staged at a spectacular downtown Toronto venue on the shores of Lake Ontario in July,  four  Senior Fellows and our Founding Executive Director  Megan Kenna brought their science and interdisciplinary journeys to life through captivating presentations.

The Showcase was part of our commitment to grow and galvanize a visible interdisciplinary science community, providing opportunities to connect, share ideas, and build stronger collaborations.
