Hello everyone and welcome to Talk Nurdy. Today is Monday, February 6th,

2023 and I'm the host of the show, Kara Santa Maria. And as always before we dive

into this week's episode, I want to thank those of you who make talk nerdy possible each week, including my top patrons here on Patreon.

All right, so let's get into this week's show.

I had the opportunity to sit down, well, again, remotely,

always remotely, with Dr. Susie Sheehi.

She's a physicist, an academic, and a science communicator,

who divides her time between research groups

at the University of Oxford and the University of Melbourne.

And she's currently focused on developing

new particle accelerators for applications in medicine.

She has a new book, actually it's her first book called The Matter of Everything,

how curiosity, physics, and improbable experiments

changed the world.

So without any further ado,

please welcome to the show,

Accelerator physicist Dr. Susie Shee. Well, Susie, thank you so much for joining me today.
