Bettina Forget, Sylvie Ouellette and Erica Pimentel are members of the Public Scholars program at Concordia University in Montreal. They talk to us about the link between art and space science, how bacteria scavenge iron from their surroundings, and how accountants work with blockchain. We also talk about a problematic article in a chemistry journal.

Emeritus Prof. Prem Sikka is a fearless accounting scholar. He talks about what it’s like to do research where you need to consult a lawyer before publishing your work.
