The Hello, Hello and this week scientists see people's dreams the next generation of batteries for electric cars and is a gut bacterial transplant the future for weight loss treatments

Plus we hear from Perth-based astronomer Kirsten Gotchjalk as she heads deep into the

Australian outback to take a look at the next generation of radio telescopes.

And joining Dominic and me to take a look at what's making science headlines this week are Phil Broadwidth from Chemistry World magazine

Laurie Winkles from the National Physical Laboratory and

Neuroscientist David Weston Weston he's from Cambridge University

and Dominic scientists can now physically see what people are dreaming about

they're saying. That's right what people see in their dreams can be decoded

with a brain scan.

Now this is a team led by Tomayasu Horikawa of the ATR computational

neuroscience laboratory in Kyoto, Japan, who worked with three volunteers who were invited to try to sleep while lying in a functional

MRI scanner.

It's quite a noisy environment, so they gave these volunteers headphones and I think they played them some music to try and help them to relax.

But these volunteers must have had a lot of patience because they were asked to repeatedly drift off to sleep and then they were woken up after about six minutes and asked

what were you dreaming about? Yes because they were looking at the brain waves to see

when they nodded off and then immediately plucked them from sleep and said

did you see anything?

So that's right this MRI scanner was making maps of where the brains inside these

subjects were active and they then compared these maps of brain activity
