Physics & Cosmology in the Spotlight

As humans, we have countless questions about the universe, but
it's not always clear HOW we can answer those questions.
Physicist and mathematician PhD student Grace Chesmore talks
about her work developing the instrumentation of telescopes that
can detect the first light of the universe (!!!) and how this
technology intersects with other important science policy topics,
like the use of 5G. For all of those scientists who never thought
they could do math, this episode goes out to you!
