Fitness Fraud: pseudoscience in medicine & health

Dave Hutchinson (Research Associate, Clinical Educator, University of Sydney)

From biological dubious to downright clueless - the psuedoscience exercise claims influencing podcasts, coaches and medical professionals span the full gambit. Experiences from the sport science lab floor to the Hospital clinic forefront will expose their false claims.

Curating the Cosmos: a Space Curator’s story

Sarah Reeves (Curator, Powerhouse Museum)

Sarah’s job is not your typical research job. Nine years ago, she took up a job as a science curator at the Powerhouse Museum. It’s part detective-work, part hanging out with astronomers and space scientists uncovering the secrets of the cosmos or developing innovative new space technologies and then I bring it all together in new exhibitions designed to share these stories with the public and showcase the amazing science being done here in Australia and around the world.
