I had a great visit with Prof. Bhavik Patel and his colleagues at the University of Brighton in November. Great to have stimulating conversations about bioanalytical chemistry lab research and chemistry education research. While there I had the opportunity to appear with Bhavik on the University’s Talking About Teaching podcast with Marina Trowell. Check it out on Spotify!
