Eric and Glenn discuss their holiday parties and preparations, play another round of "Where in the Whorld?", and then interview a guest all the way from Sydney, Australia.  Teneil Hannah, a PhD candidate at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS), joins the podcast to talk about some of her recently presented research on fingermark grading/quality scales.  These are scales used by practitioners or researchers to evaluate the effectiveness of potentially new processing and visualization techniques to develop latent fingerprints.  Whenever a laboratory is deciding to adopt a new treatment or change an existing one, the lab is expected to perform testing to evaluate the technique.  There are a number of scales available to assess latent prints.  Teneil walks us through what the most common scales are, who is using what, why are these scales important, and what modifications can be made to existing scales to improve their wide spread adoption and usage.

Episode 262 - Teneil Hannah Interview

Temaet for denne episoden av Øre for Mat er selvsagt fisk, for 6. mars er den internasjonale fiskens dag. Programleder Stein Rømmerud slo av en fiskeprat, og en og annen fiskeskrøne, med kategorisjef for fisk og sjømat i NorgesGruppen, Kenneth André Martin, og kategori- og innkjøpssjef for fisk og sjømat i UNIL Jon Nilssen. Hvordan går egentlig fiskesalget? Hva må til for å få flere til å velge fisk og sjømat? Og hva med de unge forbrukerne?
Produsent: Anders Stien Rikstad.

Episode 63: Vi markerer fiskens dag!

Pierre-Yves Brandt est professeur de psychologie de la religion depuis 25 ans. Il termine sa carrière à l’Université de Lausanne en juin prochain. Gabrielle Desarzens dresse le bilan des années d’enseignement de cet homme, emmené sur un terrain d’expertise très radiophonique: un culte vécu dans un bar.
