The scientific glassblower making one-of-a-kind equipment: 101 Jobs That Change The World (Ep 17)

Meet Terri Adams. She's the Glass Design and Fabrication Facility Manager for the University of Oxford and also one of the last scientific glassblowers to work in-house at a university. When she first started training as a scientific glassblower, the first thing people said was 'Oh, so you make test tubes', but her work is so much more than that. She helps turn scientists' ideas into bespoke complex and functional laboratory equipment that is necessary for their research. Terri says: "I think, for me, the most satisfying thing has been able to produce something with my hands. Something as well which you know, you know is going to be used for research for good, and it's going to help not only the person you're making it for but hopefully beyond that at some point, the wider world. There's my little bit of influence on history."
