Bit of a strange Dear Science this week, as both of our regularly scheduled experts happened to be absent. In their place, regular Tuesday Wire host Castor and Thursday Wire host Caeden took us through a series of interesting topics new to both them and listeners! This week on Dear Science, we chatted about phone use while driving, potential life on Mars, and iron on the teeth of Komodo dragons.
This week on Dear Science, Wire host Castor chatted to Professor Allan Blackman about fighting cancer with gold nanoparticles, trends in the melodies of popular music, and NASA's fake Mars mission.
For Dear Science this week, Professor Allan Blackman spoke to us about reconstructing the genome of the little bush moa, a protein folding prediction programme, and a new discovery regarding promethium.
