ABC Science Live on Stage – Ockham’s Razor
An engaging event in which brilliant scientists told stories of their cutting-edge work. Real science told by real scientists with no notes, no slides – just great stories.
It’s all part of Ockham’s Razor – the ABC podcast for anyone with a compelling story of science. This was a jam-packed evening of short talks to intrigue, excite and inspire.
Professor Geordie Williamson (Professor of Mathematics, University of Sydney) asked, “where do ideas come from?”
Dr Kate Selway (Earth Scientist, Macquarie University) sought to unlock the secrets of the Earth’s composition from its surface.
Sheila Pham (Writer, Radiomaker, PhD Candidate, Macquarie University) examined whether we can use complexity science to improve the experience of pregnancy.
Dr Ursula Sansom-Daly (Clinician-Researcher, Clinical Psychologist, University of New South Wales) argued we need to bridge the divide between research and clinical practice.
Steve Cannane (Investigative Journalist, ABC) looked at the story of Scientology and science.
