In the first episode of Science is here, host Barry Fitzgerald speaks with Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) researchers Elham Fadaly and Adriana Creatore about their work on light. 

Both Elham and Adriana are working on materials that interact with light in different ways. Elham is developing new materials that can emit light, while Adriana is devising new materials that can absorb light and convert it to electricity in solar cells. 

In the episode, Elham and Adriana discuss the issues they face when developing new materials associated with light, and talk about why they are fascinated by light.
