Personalising exercise plans for cardiovascular disease, better dental implants and biodegradable glitter

Einstein A Go-Go

Dr Shane is in the studio with Dr Linden, sharing science news about the hunt for new prime numbers via citizen science, and recent research combining images from the Hubble and Webb telescopes to show what the nearby star Vega really looks like.

This week's guests include Dr Kim Way from the School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences at Deakin University, speaking about pragmatic exercise training and new tests to identify and manage cardiovascular disease; PhD candidate Mr Daniel De Maria, from Biomedical Engineering within the STEM College at RMIT, talks about his pioneering research exploring biomaterials for dental implants. Lastly, Associate Professor Suzie Reichman from the School of BioSciences at University of Melbourne shares her ecotoxicology research focusing on biodegradable glitter made from cellulose nanocrystals.
