Backyard Science (FiST Chat 56)

Independent Films, Web Series, Talk Shows

The democratisation of science is now a reality with easy access to genetic material and home laboratories. Steve and Ben take a look at the rise of the backyard scientist and the potential quantum leaps forward in discoveries coming this century. This democratisation also means that governments and corporations will likely have to make room for those in their backyards making discoveries just as profound as those in official laboratories!
