32 - What stories can a dead body tell? (with Vasiliki Louka)

Lefteris asks science

In this edition of the podcast, we're talking with forensic anthropologist Vasiliki Louka, a PhD candidate from the University of Leicester. She studies human remains and aims to identify people from them. How does she do it? Why is it important? How do you end up doing this research? All this and more in this episode.
