About this listen
Join the Hyperthesis team as we welcome Dr. Hamza Khattak as our guest. To start, we discuss a paper which heavily cites work done by Dr. Khattak with his work on grapes in a microwave. We delve a bit into his past research, which made headlines and was featured in a variety of science communication media. We then explore the diverse work that Dr. Khattak does as a research associate at MacMaster University. His research includes soft matter systems, thin films, microdroplets, and generally poking things in new ways and trying to explain what happens. We end with a story about the history of fluid mechanics, exploring how intuitive ideas are actually quite complex.
