SEMINAR: Peter McAllister - Spicing Up Science Writing with Narrative

This Friday's seminar is presented by Peter McAllister, the Science Communication Writer-in-residence.

Highlights include: a biomechanical analysis proving a Neanderthal woman would have beaten Arnold Schwarzenegger in an armwrestle; a philological investigation of why Fifty Cent would bomb in a battle-rap with the poet Homer; and a comparison of injury rates between today’s Ultimate Fighting and the ancient Greek combat sport, Pankration.
