Inspired to build a better, more abundant future after witnessing violent conflict in his parents\u2019 native Yugoslavia, Pavle launched Aether Biomachines in 2017 at just 21 years old. Since then, he\u2019s successfully led the protein engineering startup to the cutting edge of nanotechnology, working to solve our planet\u2019s resource scarcity problem.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Today, Pavle and Aether are combining protein synthesis, machine learning, and nanoscale engineering to rearrange atomic structures, enabling everything from impact-free resource extraction to self-healing materials.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><br><p>Hear why at such a young age, Pavle became obsessed with building a future of abundance, what it takes to scale a true deep tech startup, and how Aether Biomachines is turning science fiction into reality.</p><br><p>Episode Highlights</p><p>00:00 Pavle on using machine learning models to rearrange atoms</p><p>00:38 Conor Gaughan introduces Pavle Jeremic and Aether Biomachines</p><p>04:23 Protein engineering, growing up around scarcity, and interest in science</p><p>07:36 Synthetic biology, UC Santa Cruz, and genetic engineering projects&nbsp;</p><p>16:16 Origin of Aether Biomachines, its long-term view, and its product categories</p><p>26:10 Storytelling in science, what industry Aether sees itself in, and defining \u201cmachine\u201d</p><p>33:12 Deep tech, scarcity vs abundance, core pillars for scaling impact</p><p>41:22 Current problems, future solutions, and balancing the two</p><p>46:37 Exciting climate innovations to watch&nbsp;</p><p>52:04 Where to learn more and end credits</p><br><p>If you liked this episode, listen next to <a href=\"https://pod.link/1646449053/episode/e14253210bf72ec13dbae4aa91a6ad0b\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Peter Godart of Found Energy on Aluminum Fuel, NASA, and Engineering Impact at Scale</a></p><br><p>More on Aether Biomachines and Pavle:</p><p><a href=\"https://www.aetherbio.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">aetherbio.com</a></p><p><a href=\"http://linkedin.com/company/aetherbio\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">linkedin.com/company/aetherbio</a>&nbsp;</p><p><a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/pavlejeremic/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">linkedin.com/in/pavlejeremic</a></p><br><p>Connect with Conor Gaughan on <a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/ckgone/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">linkedin.com/in/ckgone</a> and <a href=\"http://threads.net/@ckgone\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">threads.net/@ckgone</a>&nbsp;</p><br><p>Have questions, or a great idea for a potential guest?
