EUSci Podcast #30

Not even exams, volcanoes, and the desertion of one of our producers to Eastern Europe could keep us from bringing you the latest EUSci podcast. This week, our host Jess Hedge guides us through stories about supersized crops, elephant alarm calls, twisting nanowires, and much more. So sit back and enjoy our take on the elephantine crop of science stories that made the headlines (or at least the science pages) of newspapers over the past couple of weeks.Download LinkWhat's in today's show: News:
