We’ve got questions, and nerds have answers! Fuelled by a curiosity to understand the world around us – from the critters beneath our feet to the far reaches of the galaxy - Nerdin’ About is a podcast where passionate nerds tell us about their research, their interests, and what they’ve been Nerdin’ About lately. A spin-off of Nerd Nite Vancouver, a community lecture series held in a bar, Nerdin’ About is here to explore these questions with you. Hosted by rat researcher Kaylee Byers (she/her) and astronomy educator Michael Unger (he/him). Elise Lane (she/her) is our Mixing Engineer. Music by Jay Arner. Phone jingle by Pramodh Senarath Yapa.

From pufferfish to Arctic char, we’re diving in with Amy Liu (she/they) to learn more about these fishy friends. Amy is a pufferfish enthusiast who teaches us a thing or two about why we should admire pufferfish. Spoiler: there’s much more stuff than just the puff! Amy is also a graduate student studying Arctic char genomics, and we discuss why this tool is so important to identifying species within the Arctic char complex.
