    Brains, drones and smart apps for our phones

    Have you ever just though how easy it would be to control everything with
    your brain? Poof, the lights go on, and Netflix just chooses your favorite
    show. Beyond these niceties though, Dr. Marvin Andujar has bigger and
    better plans.

    The Pharmacovigilante

    The Pharmacovigilante

    He’s here, he’s there; Dr. Hillman brings drug safety everywhere! So given
    the rules and regulations he needs to follow, the title “vigilante” could
    be nothing but ironic.

    We chart David’s progress through choosing pharmacology as a subject to
    study, and settling on pharmacovigilance as a career to pursue.

    The Salamander Scientist

    The Salamander Scientist

    He conserves wild spaces, he climbs tall trees, he records flying
    amphibians. He is: Christian Brown – the Salamander Scientist! We talked
    about his graduate research involving dropping salamanders in a wind
    tunnel, watching hours of recordings to get his data, and his work outside
    the lab to save a local forest preserve.

    The Ambassador for Microfluidics

    The Ambassador for Microfluidics

    Microfluidics is, as the name might imply, the study of small amounts of
    liquid. Now this may not sound super exciting until you hear Dr. Éadaoin
    Carthy talking about her field.

    Serendipity in Chemistry

    Serendipity in Chemistry

    Chemistry and chemicals get a bad rap, but unfairly so. Certainly that’s
    the view of AP De Silva, someone who fell in love with the subject in his
    native Sri Lanka and who has continued a fruitful career in Northern
    Ireland.

Thought Provoking and Illuminating

Even though I am far from that field, it's a great way to learn more about what is happening in the world of science. The 23 and them episode definitely inspired me to read more into DNA testing before I decide to do so in the future. What a great listen!

Interesting topics

I really enjoyed the interaction between the host and guest. I also enjoyed the ease in which they switched between science and personal interests - like axe throwing!

A diverse and delightful collection of REAL scientists discussing their work in the pub!
