This week’s episode of Scientist Who? is one of my favorites so far. For this one, I sat down for about an hour with Dr. John Priscu, one of the most avid researchers at Montana State University with a stunning background as an Antarctic researcher (and musician!). He is one of the most renowned researcher’s in his field, studying Antarctica, ice bacteria, and astrobiology. I learned a lot from this chat and this has been one of my favorite discussions so far.
You can reach his lab website here: http://www.montana.edu/lkbonney/
Also — don’t act like you weren’t singing My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean after he mentioned Lake Bonney, because I couldn’t shake it from my head.
