Sciographies, a popular podcast and radio show, invites listeners to explore the lives, research, and motivations of some of 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 most fascinating scientists returns for a brand-new season.
Launched as a pilot project in 2018 during 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 200th anniversary celebrations, Sciographies is now set to begin its sixth season. Presented by 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 Faculty of Science in collaboration with CKDU campus radio (88.1 FM in Halifax), new episodes will air Thursdays at 4:30 PM starting on October 3, with all episodes also available on most podcast apps.
Episodes explore the ground-breaking research and personal journeys of scientists who are advancing research while also enhancing the well-being of Nova Scotians.
The show is hosted by Dr. David Barclay, an expert in underwater acoustics, who has brought listeners closer to the university's brightest minds for over 40 episodes. By the end of this season, Barclay will have interviewed 45 scientists, offering rare insights into their research and the personal journeys that fuel their work.
"This is a legacy project that I'm proud to be part of," says Dr. Barclay. "I get to sit down and have in-depth, candid conversations with some of Dal鈥檚 most brilliant people. It鈥檚 a privilege to hear their stories and learn about the research that鈥檚 shaping the future."
This season, listeners can expect even more compelling conversations, with two double-feature episodes diving into subjects like electric vehicles, solutions to climate change, shark conservation, access to mental health and learning about innovative programs like the Africentric Math Cohort.
