Every Thursday evening from 6 to 7 pm, after NPR‘s “All Things Considered,” WDIY 88.1 Lehigh Valley Public Radio airs “Lehigh Valley Discourse,” a “provocative, informative and newsworthy [show that] brings you the people and the issues that move and shape our region.”

Lehigh Valley Discourse rotates its hosts weekly. On January 31st, Rhea Malhotra ’20 hosted their new quarterly series “Teen Scientist.” Rhea interviewed Isha Mohapatra ’19 about her multi-year project to create bricks that are as strong as and more energy efficient than the industrial standard clay brick for use in home and building construction.

Listen to the interview here. (In the audio clip, the Teen Scientist segment begins at 28:42.)
