Hello, welcome along to a brand new episode of the Fun Kids Science Weekly. My name's

Dan, thanks for listening. Now, in the last week or so, we've been on the telly, we've been searching

up the podcast charts, and now we're going to travel across the universe to learn some of the

most amazing things that are lurking about inside. This week we'll talk about

the first poisonous bird scientists have ever found. We'll also chat about some AI, which helps

people understand emotions, and we'll find out what's happening to olive trees all over Europe.

Plus, I'll answer some of your questions. Today, they're on sleep, they're on teeth,

and volcanoes. First, let's get into it with one of our favourite geniuses from Fun Kids HQ. This

is Professor Hallex. Professor Halleck's pathology puzzles with the Royal College of Pathologists.

Oh, what was pretty gruesome, cutting open that dead body and putting all the squishy bits in jam jars.

I know you like pathology, but that TV show is...

It's just a TV show and remember that it's forensic pathology.

That's just one type of puzzle solving.

Most pathology is much less.

Well, less dramatic.

Look, check out this case study. See here, Josh is 11. He's complaining to his mother that he's had a bad pain in his right side and feels quite sick. His mother notices that he has a slight fever and remembers he did not eat breakfast that morning, nor has he eaten his pack lunch.

So even his mum is looking at the evidence, just like the pathologists do.

That's right. And she thinks that this isn't normal for Josh. Time to go and see a doctor.

Thing is, Josh is in so much pain when the doctor examines him that Josh's mum is told to take him to hospital.

The evidence is mounting up for it being something quite serious by the look of it.

Exactly. At the hospital a sample of blood is taken and examined by the haematology department.
