That’s a good question! Im really liking Brian Cox from Manchester Uni at the moment who is doing another series on the BBC on astrophysics, a really good science communicator.
The scientist I am most in awe of is Prof. Steve Sparks at Bristol Uni, a full professor at 28 is very impressive! What a brain!
I have a huge admiration for Marie Curie who won two nobel prizes, one in chemistry and one in physics and was the first female professor at the the University of Paris. She was an amazing and inspiring scientist.
In this event – Niamh, Kat, Jodie and Jamie. I have learnt so much from real scientists in the last few days. I hope that you have too.
Otherwise, Heikki Summala, who has done a lot of really important work in driver behaviour and driver psychology, which I find I often refer to in my investigation. Talib Rothengatter, who sadly died a couple of years ago, is also a favourite of mine, again for the work that he did, in a very balanced way, in the same field.
I don’t think that I have an actual favourite. There are so many people past and present who have done some really important research either from a medical point of view or from a discovery point of view. Do you have a favourite?
