The Hard Drive - science geeks in Zurich
A "popular science" radio show focused on the cosmpolitan scientific community of Zürich.
the two guests today are:
- Ivana Schoepf, a grad student from the Institute of Evolutionary Biology and Environmental Studies at the University of Zurich. More succinctly, a zoologist who spent most of the last 2-3 years in a research station in a remote semi-desertic region of South Africa to study the behaviour of striped mice, and what makes them decide to go look for a mate, or stay home with their parents.
- Alvaro Foletti, aerospatial engineer, former master's student at EPFLausanne and graduate student at ETH Zurich, now working in a project to help reforestation of his native Honduras. An avid reader of science fiction, Alvaro helped designing a tiny satellite (1 liter in volume) with a camera to take pictures of a mysterious atmospheric phenomenon known as "night glow".
