Description

Quiz a Whiz is the Royal Society of Edinburgh’s YouTube series that takes experts into the school classroom. “The idea is really simple: the student of participating schools submits a question to one of our experts and we record an answer to it. Our 'whizzes' included Nobel Laureates, bestselling authors, famous painters, TV personalities, and world leading scientists.” I was interviewed for Quiz a Whiz in September 2016 by Patrycja Kupiec the Events Officer for the school’s programme at the RSE and answered questions submitted on how the brain works. The interview appears on You Tube: Published on 15 Sep 2016, Keith Sillar, Professor of Neuroscience at the University of St Andrews, talks about his research on the nervous system of animals and humans.
