Surprising science: Carnivorous plants!

 

To kick-start this year's series, we delved into the fascinating and surprising world of carnivorous plants with Dr Adam Cross (Curtin University) and Professor Chiara Neto (University of Sydney). 

Dr Adam Cross is a Research Fellow at the School of Molecular and Life Sciences at Curtin University. He has pursued a love of carnivorous plants since the age of six, and is an internationally-renowned authority on their ecology and conservation. 

Professor Chiara Neto is a professor of physical chemistry and Australian Research Council Future Fellow, and leads the NanoInterfaces Lab in the School of Chemistry at the University of Sydney. The link between Chiara's work and carnivorous plants is fascinating and surprising. 

See above for the recording of this event.

This is the first of six events in the ‘Surprising science’ series, which will uncover how discoveries from our everyday lives inspired scientific solutions in ways you could not imagine. From carnivorous plants to whale blowholes and even spider webs, the world around us has inspired solutions to problems of all kinds. Join researchers, innovators, industry experts, social scientists and more to be surprised by science in 2022!
