Manage episode 457103854 series 3398398
In the final episode of 2024 we look at growing new teeth, quantum computing breakthroughs, growing diamonds in 15 minutes, turning them into diamond batteries that last for 5000 years, materials that can learn and adapt, and much more.
Again, we do discuss the sentiments surrounding the insurance industry right now. This is especially pertinent with proposed new forms of corporate and public governance that we look into.
Finally, we finish off the season strong with some profound words from resident science communicator Ben. Listen in, enjoy, and we’ll speak again soon.
