Minnov8 Gang 183: You gettin’ an eyephone five?

September 14, 2012 By Steve Borsch

Mobile is once again the driving theme behind the show due, in no small part, to the release of the Apple iPhone 5 this week. Our guest is Whit Schrader, Strategic IT Architect at MentorMate, who is known as “one part data scientist, two parts entrepreneur” as he was professionally trained as a neuroscientist, conducted human brain imaging research at Vanderbilt before starting his PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience.

Hosts: Steve Borsch, Tim Elliott, Graeme Thickins and Phil Wilson.
Music: Sweet Mother Blues by Mean Gene Kelton & The Die Hards brought to us by the podsafe Music Alley.
