The number π (spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159. The number π appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics. This podcast talks about the value of pi, its derivation and its importance.

Immunotherapy is a type of cancer treatment that helps your immune system fight cancer. The immune system helps your body fight infections and other diseases. It is made up of white blood cells and organs and tissues of the lymph system. Immunotherapy is a type of biological therapy. Biological therapy is a type of treatment that uses substances made from living organisms to treat cancer.Let us know more about it through this podcast made by few interested students of Grade 8, Sheth CN Vidyalaya along with team VASCSC.

UNSW chemists have engineered a new molecular ‘vice’, by including the rare metal osmium, that can bind methane for hours – providing crucial evidence for an intermediate step that will inform new catalysts to store, transport, or transform the gas into methanol and help to avert wastage of the gas worldwide. This new ‘osmium-methane’ complex can bind methane – better known as natural gas – for hours, much longer than the current standard of microseconds, allowing for its analysis to create potential new catalysts to transform methane.Let us hear the podcast to know more about this breakthrough achieved in the field of chemistry.

Graphene has been described as a “wonder material,” given its potential in a growing pool of applications and industries, from quantum computing to healthcare. While it’s the thinnest material in the world at just one atom-thick, graphene is among the strongest at roughly 200 times stronger than steel. This podcast talks about the properties and current applications of Graphene and why it is called a 'Wonder Material'!

We wonder. It’s our nature. How did we get here?Are we alone in the universe?How does the universe work?The James Webb Space Telescope is an ambitious scientific endeavor to answer these questions. Webb builds on the legacy of previous space-based telescopes to push the boundaries of human knowledge even further, to the formation of the first galaxies and the horizons of other worlds.Source: https://webbtelescope.org/
