About the show

Show Information

The Provocateurs: I like big peaks / Pax Physica

Kellie Hodge (The University of Edinburgh) reveals how mass spectrometry uncovers the hidden molecular stories across research, art, and space—from ground-breaking discoveries to priceless masterpieces and distant planets. Discover the invisible chemistry shaping our health, culture, and understanding of the universe.

Physicist Dr Tyler Shendruk (The University of Edinburgh) applies physics to biology. But lately he's started wondering... Is he an unwitting soldier in physics' imperial conquest of science? Is he the bad guy? A comedic reckoning with scientific imperialism.

14+ must be accompanied by an adult.
