Ep. 98 - The Best of Season 5: Highlights from Science 360

That's a wrap for season 5 on Science 360. I'm sharing with you today some highlights from 7 of the 19 episodes of the season. Of course, there could have been many more, but I had to consider time limitations. Plus, this forces you to click on these episodes and all the others to hear more!

Today you will hear from:

1. Dr. Greg Hammer, MD,  a mindfulness expert who talks about modulating the effects of the vagus nerve on your parasympathetic nervous system. Do you get stressed? Listen to Dr. Hammer!
2. Dr. Tim Dasey, an expert on AI and author of the book Wisdom Factories. Have you wondered about how AI will factor into your world? Check out my episode with Tim and find him on LinkedIn as well for lots of blogs on AI and education.
3. Mr. Peter Phillips-Johnston, a former student of mine who has become an expert in linguistics. Peter talks about how learning anything is possible, with the right mindset.
4. Dr. Marcelo Gleiser, Templeton Prize Winner. Dr. Gleiser is a deep thinker on all things science and philosophy, an intellectual who emphasizes the need for creativity and art.
5. Dr. Ross Laird, a professor who promotes a mindful change in the education system. Ross will push the way you consider the traditional classroom.
6. Dr. Sarika Cullis-Suzuki, the host of CBC's The Nature of Things. You might recognize her name, but Sarika brings all the knowledge and enthusiasm for learning science as her father did.
7. Dr. Julia Huggins, an expert on the microscopic world of microbes, the very thing that sustains all life on the planet! Julia was so interesting, I had her on for a two-part series!
