The Pseudoscientists

Jack and Tom are joined by science communicator extraordinare Upulie Divisekera to discuss her successful Twitter project @realscientists, why glowing trees won't replace streetlamps, and why a treatment for autism might be around the corner. Jargonauts looks at "epigenetics", and we think about whether or not we'd go on a "suicide" mission to Mars, with some help from your opinions. Next week's question: "What branch of science legitimately scares you?" Plus: dissolving Smarties, Jack's boring life, and ghost hunting.
