ScienceOnline11: ScienceWeekly Podcast
I really enjoyed #scio11, also known as ScienceOnline 2011. Here is another of the neat things I learned:
- My bee buddy Kerstin Hoppenhaus introduced me to Alok Jha's Science weekly podcast. I listened to and loved an episode on my drive to the conference -- and then met Alok himself. I highly recommend his podcast.
- The Jan. 24 episode is about ScienceOnline, so you can hear more about the conference.
- The September 20, 2010 episode is entitled What the Brain Can and Can't Do and is a good listen for cognitive science aficionados.
- Alok and ScienceWeekly are both on Twitter.
Science weekly comes out Mondays, so listen to it today!
