podcast #9 : Michael gregory, riding across canada for science

25/3/2021

1 Comment

 
Michael Gregory, set out to ride across Canada to see what teachers are doing in the classroom to engage their students. This started a journey that has not only led him to other countries, but also start a Science camp that brings together students from around the world to explore science in a practical and engaging way. Listen to his story, and at the end see a great way to model how masks prevent the spread of disease

podcast #8 : Tara Murphy : I "saw" radio waves from crashing neutron stars

18/3/2021

1 Comment

 
Tara Murphy is an astrophysicist whose claim to fame is that she and her team discovered the radio emissions of the first neutron merger that was detected by LIGO in 2017. On top of this she studies massive objects such as black holes and neutron stars. And on top of this she communicates science through public talks and writing as well her love of coding. And she love apocalyptic literature!edit.
