Science and people behind it.
In this podcast, I am a physicist, Andrey Seryakov, interviewing scientists about their fascinating research topics. During the episodes, we go through various scientific ideas trying to puzzle them out and reveal what is standing behind the academic life
I record episodes in both Russian and English languages:
- Born to science podcast
- Born to science подкаст
The podcast is available on Spreaker, iTunes, VK and Yandrex.Music.

8 APR 2019 · Can you imagine how the matter behaved right after the Big Bang?
Consider two atomic nuclei flying toward each other with almost speed of light. What happens if they collide? We create a tiny unstable droplet of the primordial matter.
This matter has nothing in common with the ordinary matter which surrounds us. It is much denser and extremely hot (temperature > 1 000 000 000 000 000 C). The field researching that is called the heavy ion collisions physics, and the matter is called quark-gluon plasma.
This is the second and the last pilot episode of the Born to science podcast and today’s guest is a professor Boris Tomasik. He develops the theory of heavy ion collisions in the Czech Technical University in Prague and the Matej Bel University in Slovakia. We will discuss what quark-gluon plasma is, how we create it and how it behaves. Enjoy!
This episode was supported by the COST-THOR EU programme.
p.s. This is the last pilot episode of the podcast. So I would appreciate any feedback from your side. Comments and suggestions are very welcome. If you like it and want more, then text me about it and don't forget to share the podcast with your friends

2 APR 2019 · Welcome to the born to science podcast, the podcast about science and people behind it.
Why do they choose to be scientists? What motivates them?
Today guest: Bradley van Paridon.
He is a freelance science journalist, podcaster and has a Ph.D. in Parasitology.
We will discuss:
1. Parasites - mind manipulation, migration, evolution
2. Science journalism
His stories: https://bvanp213.contently.com
His podcast: Two Brad for you https://twobradforyou.wordpress.com
Enjoy!
This episode was supported by the COST-THOR EU programme.
p.s. This is the first of two pilot episodes. Therefore I would be happy for any feedback from your side. Comments and suggestions are very welcome. You can find me at:
