Cambridge scientists talk about their work on community radio station Cambridge 105. In these short interviews, they tell how maths, physics, chemistry and biology are put to use in ways they never told us about at school. Our scientists worked in health, business, university research and places we had never thought of. Do share to drive STEM education and careers. Interviews by Roger Frost, Chris Creese and the science show radio team.

scientist 51: the climate physicist – Tim Palmer predicts climate change (2015)
Can we believe that the climate will change in the long term, when we can’t even predict tomorrow’s weather? Our guest Tim Palmer is a Professor in Climate Physics at the University of Oxford, and President of the Royal Meteorological Society at the time. In this interview Professor Palmer tell us what the job entails and how maths and physics are at the core of making predictions. He’ll remind us that we are quite good at predicting the weather. Interviewed in 2015.
