You know we’re back into the swing of things when you start doing your regular science chats around the country. As per last year I’ll be chatting to ABC Mid North Coast (Port Macquarie) each Wednesday at 10:10 am (new time), ABC Western Plains (Dubbo) each Wednesday fortnight at 10:35 am, and ABC Central West (Orange) each Tuesday fortnight at 9:35 am. I’m also adding ABC Western Victoria (Bendigo) to my roll call – alternative Wednesday at 10:35 am.
Last week I had my first spot with Angela Owens at ABC Central West. We talked about tiny hard drives and how increased levels of carbon dioxide affects brain activity in fish.
Recently I received a call from ABC North Tasmania asking if I would chat about ‘sense of direction’. A quick search of our news archives revealed we had at least three interesting stories. So I agreed to speak with the breakfast presenter Penny Terry at 6:20 am (what I do for science).
Over the summer period I’ll be talking science with Julian Morrow on ABC Radio National, every Friday at around 8:15 am.
Yesterday I spoke with Richard Glover on ABC 702 Sydney about research that suggests how Moses parted the sea in Exodus 14.
Australian researchers have unearthed a treasure trove of fossils in outback Queensland. It’s one of the biggest collections of fossils from a single marsupial species ever found and the discovery will allow scientists to see how the animals grew and the similarities between them and their modern day descendants.
Recently I spoke with Richard Glover on ABC 702 Sydney about some research into one of Australia’s greatest thoroughbred horses, Phar Lap.
Recently spoke with Richard Glover from ABC702 about a new piece of research that may answer this question.
Spoke to Richard Glover on ABC 702 about NASA’s plan to ‘auction’ off its excess artefacts.
