Ep 1 - (re)Defining Heat with Dr. Bharat Venkat
Manage episode 366895726 series 3486636
Heat continues to increase in frequency, duration, and intensity. Yet it remains an overlooked (and under researched) part of our lives. Dr. Bharat Venkat is the founder and director of the UCLA Heat Lab, an interdisciplinary effort to study the experience of thermal inequality. His upcoming book project involves engaging with nearly 200 years of heat research to tell a synthetic story of what heat is today and how we've come to understand it. He joins us to discuss the work of the Heat Lab, different methods of studying heat, and why we’re studying the phenomena in the first place.
