Dr. Bryan Scott's interested in principled inference and astrostatistics. His research focuses on the use of large galaxy surveys and intensity mapping experiments to constrain cosmology and astrophysics over cosmic time. His graduate work at U.C. Riverside focused on measurements of the Ultraviolet Extragalactic Background Light and on the sensitivity of future spectroscopic intensity mapping experiments to modifications of Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity. And he's won many certificates for his excellence in teaching all that stuff. And he loves LEGOs... And Star Trek... In this episode our nerd, Benjamin, and our scientist, Kovi, are faced with someone who's both. And did we mention he launched things into space? He's launched things into space.Émilie du Châtelet : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89milie_du_Ch%C3%A2teletBryan Scott : https://github.com/bscotKovi Rose : https://www.facebook.com/funfactscience/Benjamin Salles : https://www.facebook.com/actuallyscience
