Dr Shane, Dr Ray and Stacey discuss the week’s hottest science, including drones playing dodgeball, the latest on the COVID-19, and the discovery of more iron than expected in the region of space closest to Earth.
The team interview Renée C. Firman, ARC Future Fellow with the Centre for Evolutionary Biology, School of Biological Sciences at the University of Western Australia, about her research into how rodent species are likely to form social groups and work cooperatively, to reduce the severity of stressors associated with rapid adjustments in climatic conditions.
They also chat with comedian and public health practitioner Alanta Colley, about her insights into gut bacteria and poo.
Finally they talk with Associate Professor Karli Verghese, Principal Research Fellow, School of Design at RMIT University, about the logistics and environmental impacts of operating Antarctic research stations.
