Are inventors born or made? Berkeley engineers explore that question in the award-winning documentary Pathways to Invention, premiering on PBS stations nationwide in May. The documentary, featuring CEE professor Ashok Gadgil, is a 60-minute special that follows eight "modern inventors of diverse backgrounds and their journeys as they develop life-changing innovations."
The film will first air in the SF Bay Area at 10 p.m. PT on Wednesday, May 1, on KQED 9. It will also air at 9 p.m. PT on Tuesday, May 7, on KQED WORLD and will be available to stream after May 1 in the PBS app. The film will also be available for viewing on May 2 during the Jacobs Spring Design Showcase at UC Berkeley.
