Come along to hear from four incredible scientists who are working on new discoveries.
Our speakers will each give a 10-minute talk that’s part science, part humour. They’ve been training with comedians for the past few months and recently performed at the Sydney Comedy Festival.
Please note that the talks may contain swearing and adult themes, and the line-up of speakers is subject to change at short notice.
Speakers include:
- Murad Tayebjee, Associate Professor, University of New South Wales, who is trying to use sunlight more efficiently to power the world.
- Saoirse Connor Desai, Postdoctoral Research Associate, University of Sydney, who is looking at how we judge information sources and why we sometimes believe misinformation.
- Nate Zettna, Lecturer, The University of Sydney Business School, who is studying how we can build effective, sustainable, and resilient teams.
- Kainat Fatima, PhD Candidate, University of Technology Sydney (UTS), who is working to help identify timber that is illegally imported and exported across the globe.
