The Life Scientific

Each week, Jim al-Khalili invites a leading scientist to tell us about their life and work. He'll talk to Nobel laureates as well as the next generation of beautiful minds to find out what inspires and motivates them and what their discoveries might do for us.

As a singer-songwriter, Emma du Preez demonstrates the emotionally haunting union of an acoustic guitar, poignant vocals, a sharp mind and a deft ability for lyrical craftsmanship. Her strong stage presence and quirky playfulness combine with a startling vulnerability that makes for an enchanting performance.

These songs stay with you.
