Episode 321: Electrics, Leaves and Outer-Space
from That's What I Call Science! Hosted by That’s What I Call Science
From Catalonia, PhD student Marc Busuldu grew up fascinated by the stars. Internships across Spain led him to a position at CREAF and to his current PhD on how characterising the electrical signal of leaves can help us to better understand and detect drought in forests through satellite imaging. Marc’s project combines mathematics, electrics and biology reflecting his varied interests which span plants, philosophy and theatre. Join Dr Kate Johnson to hear about Marc’s research and why it matters in a changing climate, his reflections on the barriers to a scientific career and advice to others who may wish to pursue scientific research. Show theme music: Kevin MacLeod Thank you to the whole TWICS team for the incredible behind-the-scenes volunteering every week!
