+We are joined by Kathrin Stark, a professor at Heriot-Watt University
+in Edinburgh. Kathrin works on program verification with proof
+assistants, so her focus is not exactly on Haskell, but on topics dear
+to Haskellers' hearts such as interactive theorem provers, writing
+correct programs, and the activities needed to produce them. We
+discuss many aspects of proofs and specifications, and the languages
+involved in the process, as well as verifying and producing provably
+correct neural networks.
