E36: Understanding Topology through Donuts with Christopher Mahadeo

from PodCavern · host Tuong

Kids learn about shapes from a very young age. Circles, squares, triangles are familiar territory. But when it comes to high-energy physics, the topology gets a good deal more complicated. Recent PhD grad and mathematician, Christopher Mahadeo, joins us to talk about the geometry of shapes that are used in cutting edge physics. Vinny and Katie talk about detecting radioactivity and the human genome project. The post E36: Understanding Topology through Donuts with Christopher Mahadeo appeared first on PodCavern.
