UNE Sci Flicks episodes
- Gattaca (Season 1, Episode 2)
For the second episode of the collaborative series Sci Flicks, Dr. Marissa Betts returns with a very familiar face! Dr. Mary McMillan has been on air quite a few times in the past and it's always a treat when she drops by! As human genetics are one of her specialties, she was the perfect academic to discuss the genetic science featured in the 1997 dystopian film Gattaca.
