## Summary

Hosts Daniel and Forbode discuss three engineering stories: a multi-university collaboration led by Professors Ming Yan Liu, Young Liu, Patty Naz Nazrizade, and Ming Yin to detect and mitigate bias in AI hiring models; Five Microns' anti-tremor gloves using tuned mass damper technology to reduce essential tremors by ~85%; and ETH Zurich's use of Microsoft HoloLens 2 for AR-assisted spinal surgery at Balgrist University Hospital.
