We’re so excited to welcome you to Season 17 of Let’s Talk SciComm. We have some fabulous episodes in store and can’t wait to share them with you.
What better way to get the season started than a conversation with the multi-talented Dr James O’Hanlon? James is a scientist, author, artist and communicator with a background in behavioural ecology. He has published over 30 academic papers and his popular science writing has appeared in ABC News, Australian Geographic, The Guardian, and The Sydney Morning Herald. He has travelled around Australia and the globe uncovering the secret lives of insects, spiders and other mysterious animals. If it is small, elusive, and lacks a backbone, James has an insatiable desire to find out what it is and what it does. His debut popular science book “Silk and Venom: The incredible lives of spiders” was released in 2023 through New South Publishing and his public art installations can be found across country New South Wales from Forbes to Boggrabri.
