How did the quirky mathematics of topology help unlock the secrets of superconductivity? The answer won a Nobel Prize for Physics in 2016. We find out more in our Nobel Prize 2016 recap special.

Making nano-machines out of molecules won the Nobel Prize for 2016 in Chemistry. We find out about the complicated chemistry and physics that went into making a toolbox of building blocks we can use to make nano machines.

What age group has the best liars? How can can you lie to your brain to get relief from an itch? Does the world make more sense upside down? Well fear not because the Ig Nobel Prize winners of 2016 answered these questions and more. Find out in Part 2 of our Ig Nobel Prize 2016 special.

It's time for science that no one else bothered to ask, the Ig Nobel Prizes in 2016. We find out about two winners this year who put underpants on rats, and others who took holidays from humanity and became goats, badgers and foxes in the name of science.

Precision medicine is tailored to your genes and organs, which can really help transplants, treatments and more! We find out more in our precision medicine special.

Finding new species in unexpected places - from pet stores to zoos and conservation areas. Plus we find out what secret (but adorable) technique bats use to find their prey!

Storms across the universe - from Jupiter to gas giants across space, and back here on earth. What mysteries lie at Jupiter's poles? How do super gas giants work? Why did our atmosphere break a decades old pattern?

How is a storm in Iceland connected to seismologists in Japan? How did the Australian Navy team up with Universities to find an even greater barrier reef? What are we doing about former Hurricane Gaston?

How do we protect earth from asteroids and comets? Can we avoid the science fiction disasters and actually turn space mining into a reality?

We celebrate citizen science as part of National Science Week! We find out why divers are the most helpful citizen scientists, how QLD science students broke a world record and how university students launched their projects into space. Plus we break down the barriers between arts and science with the help of the Synchrotron!
