"There's a Lot you Can Do with Birds in a Wind Tunnel" and Other Stories with Dr. Alex Evans #ScientistOutLoud

The Lab Out Loud podcast welcomes Dr. Alex Evans to the show. From a young age, Alex developed a love for science that eventually led to a career as a research scientist in animal physiology, focusing on measuring the energetics of animals in flight. Changing gears to science communication, Alex now works as a science educator, presenter, and writer. Joining co-hosts Brian Bartel and Dale Basler, Alex discusses his love of parrot Twitter accounts, describes what we can learn from bird energetics that can be applied to real world problems (and mythical creatures), and encourages young scientists to get out and find new information about the world around them. #ScientistOutLoud Lab Out Loud found Alex (and many other scientists) on #sciencetwitter. Throughout season 13, the podcast will be showcasing some of these scientists and their work. Show notes at: https://laboutloud.com/2020/05/episode-226-alex-evans/
