About the Show
Season one boasts 10.5 hours of science content that can be distributed on national PBS TV stations, YouTube, Hot Science's website and numerous social media channels.
For two decades, the popular lecture series Hot Science - Cool Talks has fascinated Austin audiences. The TV spinoff, Hot Science, continues its spirit of inventiveness, community engagement and learning. From the birth of galaxies to fighting cancer, the show brings leading scientists and their research to the world through engaging storytelling, music and animation.
Hot Science is a collaboration between scientists and artists who are devoted to STEM education. UT’s Environmental Science Institute, the Jackson School of Geosciences, and the Moody College of Communication would be honored if you joined our team.
