Summary: It’s summer time and one of our favourite times of the year. That’s because for a week every July we throw open the doors and invite along the best and brightest scientists from around the UK to showcase their research at our Summer Science Exhibition. This presents a great chance to ask the scientists some questions face to face, and really get hands-on with cutting edge science. 00:50 Plasma Rockets with Tom Wantock from the University of Surrey 04:08 Richard's Remains with Jim Butler from the University of Leicester 10:08 Face Facts with Megan Sutherland from the University of Glasgow 12:48 Tiny Tech with Dr Kristian Thaller from the University of Southampton 15:30 Vanishing Glaciers with Professor Neil Glasser from Aberysywyth University 17:39 Cosmic Ray Detectives exhibition with students from Bordesley Green Girls' School in collaboration with the University of Birmingham 21:15 Forensic Femme Fatales event with crime writer Val McDermid, as well as forensic experts Prof Sue Black OBE FRSE from the University of Dundee, Prof Lorna Dawson from University of Aberdeen, and Prof Niamh NicDaeid from the University of Dundee 22:52 Science Made Simple with Ruth Perkins 24:45 Nuclear Fusion with Chief Executive Dr David Kingham, and Business Development Manager Dr Melanie Windridge from Tokamak Energy 29:44 Origins of Life with Nick Lane from University College London Listen to this episode
