Three tertiary students describe their lives of learning
Jonathan Davis from Townsville in northern Qld won a Eureka Prize when he was 15 and talked about studying maths, philosophy and neurology at university! Well now he's at ANU in Canberra. We check in with Jonathan for a report on his progress.
Zofia Witkovsky-Blake was also 15 at her first appearance on The Science Show. Now in her early twenties, she's combining bioinformatics and statistics with entomology, dance and theatre! Oh, and she's a brilliant poet as well, as she demonstrates.
Jessie French is a young force behind Melbourne's Design Week now starting and she shows how other biological materials can replace the ubiquitous and harmful plastics that cover our civilisation and won't go away.
