35. What rubber bands can tell us about DNA (w/ Adam Fortais)

Science Sucks

Adam Fortais (he/him) is a PhD candidate studying the physics of soft matter at McMaster University. Adam co-hosts the AlmaMac, a weekly radio show. Each week, hosts Adam, Shawn, and Matt talk to a researcher about their work — what inspires, excites, and makes them curious. If you’re curious about physics, biology, and everything in between, strap in for this interview!

Check out all of Adam's writing and SciComm work on his website!
