science minutes

“Science minutes,” an idea developed by Atlantic Public Media, are short 60-90 second sound-rich portraits about scientists, their work, and its relevance to everyday life. Listening lets you peer into a microscope, glide across the sea floor, or climb into a volcano. Here are a bunch that I produced, which have aired on WCAI, the Cape and Islands NPR station:
