These are the things we discussed with Dr. Joshua Garland and Dr. Mirta Galesic from the Santa Fe Institute.

Lefteris asks science - Edition 22 - The psychology of heavy metal (with Dr. Kyle J. Messick)

Scientists continue to discover new things in their quest to understand the fundamental principles of life, and at the same time help improve the lives of millions. But with scientists being busy with their research and the public living in an extremely fast paced world, there are a lot of new technologies or discoveries that are either being overlooked or even misunderstood. Lefteris (that's me) meets with the scientists and tries to understand what their job entails and how can their work affect the lives of potentially millions of people.
