Lucy Smith

Next person, Caitlin Thurn, making your Science with Dr. Carl debut.

Caitlin, welcome to the show.

There's a few different avenues that we can go down with you, Caitlin.

So let's start with the fact that you are specialising in physics and mathematics.

You're still studying.

You've previously studied neuroscience at the University of Melbourne and you founded a really special project, which we're going to get to a little bit later on.

Mm-hmm.

Tell me, what is something that you've been working on amongst your studies that's really blowing your mind at the moment?

Yeah.

Totally.

And this is something that you're also applying.

You are a serving member of the Australian Army Reserve as a combat engineer.

Tell us about that work.

What does that look like?

Rules for life as well, yes.

It's just very, very good fun.

And so what kind of questions would you like to answer today?

What can people pick your brain about?

Let's talk about that a little bit later on as well.

But we'll jump into a question here.
