Show Notes

In this episode, Cameron & Hallam are joined by Nikita Patel.
Nikita is currently studying for her PhD at Queen Mary University of London, where her research is investigating new therapeutic approaches for haemorrhagic shock relating to multiple organ failure. 

Whilst Nikita doesn't have a typical chemistry background, her scientific thinking, and her way of conveying very complex topics into easy to digest chunks of information, made her the perfect candidate to co-host the Next-Gen debate: 

Countdown to Planet Zero Combating climate change with chemistry


Nikita was selected to co-host the event, due to her award winning presentations given to the SCI, The Society of Chemical Industry.

Later in the episode, Hallam shares a True Periodic Fable, sharing the story of Robert Bunsen, the creator of the famous Bunsen Burner.
