LuxeSci Chats - Dr Jessica Steier from Unbiased Science

LuxeSci is back with another interview and we're super excited about this one. We have been following the Unbiased Science account since the pandemic and it's a go to for us for creative, accurate and compassionate communication on trending science topics. In this episode we talk to Unbiased Science founder and public health scientist, Dr. Jessica Steier. We had so much fun chatting with Dr. Steier about her favorite luxury item, towel warmers. Why are these not a thing in the US? Why do we like warm towels and is there a health benefit to using heat after injuries? Join us and Dr. Steier for a fun and informative conversation about the Unbiased Science universe and the benefits of a cozy towel.
