Fish Fry Special Edition: Makers Today! Lorraine Underwood

We look at science as something very elite, which only a few people can learn. That’s just not true. You just have to start early and give kids a foundation. Kids live up, or down, to expectations.” – Mae Jemison

Welcome to a new episode of our special edition podcast series called “Makers Today!”, where we highlight the movers and shakers in the Maker space. In this month’s episode, my guest is teacher, maker, and author Lorraine Underwood. Lorraine and I chat about her participation in the the #badass Women Makers and Engineers Contest at element14, the cool projects she has created, and why she wrote the book Save the World with Code.

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
