    Women in Science

    · Insights to Science

    This episode is not about a research topic but about the researchers. Since today is the UN day for Women and Girls in Science, I talked to five inspiring female scientist from Stockholm University about what brought them to science and academia, what they like and dislike and asked them for advice for young scientist.

    The five scientist I talked to are Annica Ekman (MISU), Anna Sobek (ACES) and Ilona Riipinen (ACES), Malin Kylander (GEO) and Barbara Wolfrath (GEO). You can find out more about them on the official webpage from Stockholm University (su.se), the department webpages: aces.su.se, misu.su.se and geo.su.se. Barbara also writes her on blog where she explains why you should study geology and more - give it a read! barbarawohlfarth.wordpress.com.

    Thanks to Ilona, Annica, Barbara, Anna and Malin to take the time to talk to me! I enjoyed each conversation and I've learnt a lot from them! Thank you so much!

  • Danger Down the Drain

    Danger Down the Drain

    · Insights to Science

    Wastewater treatment plants are crucial parts of any urban area because they help protect water bodies from human pollution and help maintain environmental water quality. Industrial facilities like car washes, airports, and hospitals use a lot of chemicals, and these chemicals can potentially be spilled down the drain in large quantities and reach the wastewater treatment plant, and cause damage to the plant’s ability to treat water properly. If the wastewater treatment plant cannot treat incoming wastewater properly, this poses a danger to the environment. Listen to John Hader (@john_d_hader on twitter) talking about his research project and explaining the danger of chemical pollution in our waste water.
