Thursday's mean second speakers! A big welcome to Kostas Bantounos, who'll be speaking on Monday 3rd December! - "I'm a PhD student with a background in Electronics & Electrical Engineering. My research is in depth imaging sensors that driverless cars could use to map their surroundings in 3D. However, my ChatSci talk has nothing to do with that. I'll be talking about food science, which is a hobby and passion of mine. For a year now, I've been organising public engagement events, aiming to change people's attitude towards cooking. The science-part is surprisingly fascinating, touching upon soft-matter physics and chemistry. The cooking-part is a platform to express creativity. Not to mention, you literally get to taste your creations! - "Separating a carrot butter emulsion with a centrifuge” - #InterSci #ChatSci #ChatSciSeries6 #edinburgh #whatsonedinburgh #phd #electronics #electrical #engineering #foodscience #publicengagement #scicom #cooking #sciencecooking #carrot #centrifuge - ChatSci is on at 6.30pm at Sofi's Southside, Monday December 3rd. - Visit the event page for more information: ow.ly/y0jj30mK7KY

No autographs, please... A big thank you to @nightdrive22 and @elliecawthera for an awesome article about InterSci and what we do! Pick up your copy of EUSCI in the buildings around George Square - or find it online! #edinburgh #eusa #eusci #science #sciencemagazine #scicom #intersci #chatsci

Start getting excited for Monday’s first amazing speaker – Arnold Benjamin! Visit our website or Facebook event to find out more about his research. - “Excited for the conference!” - ChatSci Series 6 week 3 is on Monday, December 3rd at 6.30pm at Sofi’s Southside.

Meet Arnold Benjamin, our fantastic first speaker for Monday’s ChatSci! - “The patient is usually required to remain motionless (still) while scanning is performed. This is because MRI is very sensitive to motion. For many applications especially when it comes to cardiac or abdominal imaging, it is a challenge because sometimes the patient is required to perform a breath-hold during scanning. In my research I specifically look at accelerating the scanning process (reducing scan time to a fraction of the original scan time) without compromising the quality of the images that are acquired. My talk is going to be about, 'Scanning Your Brain Faster'. By accelerating MRI scanning, more patients can be scanned within the same amount of time or additional data can be collected within the prescribed time limit leading to considerable cost savings for hospitals and added comfort for the patients.” - “When there’s no one in your office.” - ChatSci Series 6 week 3 is on Monday, December 3rd at 6.30pm at Sofi’s Southside.
