Being a Radiologist – Learn to read X-rays!
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to have x-ray vision? A radiologist gets to use this superpower every day! By using a special camera, they are able to take a picture of your insides to look at your bones, organs, and muscles. Join us for a conversation with some of UCSF’s Radiology and Biomedical […]
Starship Reality-check: The Science of Deep Space Travel
The stars beckon. But humans evolved to survive on Earth, not to hurtle through space. For long-duration travel – interplanetary and, even, interstellar – what spacecraft accommodations are necessary? Is on-board human hibernation an option? Might we overcome the problems of space radiation and prolonged weightlessness? Finally, scientists may argue that the ideal craft for […]
