Monday, August 3, 2009 at 12:17PM EUSci: Edinburgh University Science Podcast #14
Rejoice, the new episode of the EUSci podcast is here! If we seem any chirpier than usual, it's because someone finally replaced all the light bulbs in our studio. This week, we talk about longevity, scary robots, scientific fraudsters and much more. We also feature an interview with Dr. John Quinn from Makerere University, Kampala. So sit back and enjoy our take on the honest multitude of science stories that made the headlines (or at least the science pages) of newspaper over the past couple of weeks.
