Marcus Jones joined Christina live in studio for Dear Science! This week, Marcus and Christina discussed the potential end of particle physics research and why the Tonga volcanic eruption was so explosive.
Join Christina and AUT Professor Allan Blackman for your weekly fix of Dear Science! This week, Allan and Christina discussed the imperial system vs the metric system (and got a bit carried away!). They also discussed a super reactive chemical in the atmosphere that could alter how we do climate modelling, and a silk tag that could tell you whether your medications are safe or dodgy.
This week on Dear Science, Christina was joined live in studio by AUT professor Marcus Jones. They discussed gun violence research in the United States, questions surrounding monkeypox, and why the science behind why yawning is contagious.
This week on Dear Science, AUT Professor Marcus Jones joined Christina live in studio. They discussed the first image of the black hole at the centre of our galaxy, how naming species may be contributing to a gender bias, and coronavirus "ghosts", which can linger in our gut long after catching COVID-19.
Feening for Dear Science? You're in luck! This week on The Tuesday Wire, Christina and AUT Professor Allan Blackman spoke about magnets being used to treat cancer, Tasmania achieving carbon-negative status, and Canada's attempt to stamp out crime on the Moon.
Your regular dose of Dear Science with AUT Professor Marcus Jones! This week Christina and Marcus discussed how climate change can cause disease outbreaks in animals, the detection of evidence of a sound tunnel, and the mysterious persistence of CFCs in the atmosphere despite them being banned.
Christina had her regular catch up with AUT Professor Marcus Jones for Dear Science. This week, they discussed a new thermal battery that could efficiently store renewable energy, the search for Earth 2.0, and how monkeys can sense their own heartbeat.
This week on Dear Science, Christina caught up with AUT Professor Allan Blackman. They talked about the anniversay of Russian Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin heading up to space (being the first ever person to do so), Researchers finally completing the genomic sequence for the first time, and a confounding physics puzzle that has the potential to change how we understand the universe.
This week on Dear Science, Christina caught up with AUT Professor Marcus Jones. They talked about the increased risk of developing diabetes after recovering from Covid, a new type of painkiller free of opioids, and how fish are able to learn basic maths.
This week on Dear Science, Christina caught up with AUT Professor Allan Blackman. They talked about how the war in Ukraine has caused a helium shortage, the materials that make up the crust of Mercury, and why we find certain people boring.
