PODCAST #22: Dr Karl Kruszelnicki - physicist, doctor, science communicator and story teller

23/6/2021

0 Comments

 
Australia's own Dr Karl Kruszelnicki, physicist, doctor, science communicator and populariser (and more), has been sharing stories of science for decades, in radio, on tv and in numerous books. As a result he has become, in many respects, the face of science in Australia. Winning numerous awards, including an Order of Australia, and identified as one of Australia's living treasures, in this podcast we discuss his journey and passion for science, and in a way only Karl can do, ends up squeezing as many science stories in the mix. ​

PODCAST#20: Don Lincoln - discoverer of top quark, face of Fermilab, sci communicator, Star Trek fan

10/6/2021

3 Comments

 
Don Lincoln is an internationally renowned science communicator. As a particle physicist, his work led to the discovery of not only the top quark in 1995, at Fermilab, but the Higgs Boson in 2012, at CERN. He has written for CNN, Forbes and The Physics Teacher, presented at TED talks and written many books on science . And his videos on Fermilab's Youtube channel have garnered over 500,000 subscribers. In this video we discuss his work, both in particle physics and science communication, offers salient to advice to educators and students, and discuss his love for trashy Sci Fi, especially Start Trek.
