Ecology on the Radio

‘I’m super excited to be joining Einstein a Go-Go’s team on Triple R this year,’ Dr Ritchie, a senior lecturer in Deakin’s School of Life and Environmental Sciences, says.

‘The show has been bringing the latest and greatest science to the public since 1990, so it’s a great honour to be involved with such an important science communication institution.

‘I’ll be talking about all fields of science, but as an ecologist I’m certainly keen to raise the profile and demonstrate the importance of environmental- and conservation-based research. Given the enormous challenges our planet faces, ecology has perhaps never been a more important science!’

Einstein a Go-Go goes to air on Sundays from 11am to 12 noon on radio Triple R in Melbourne. Dr Ritchie will take up his co-host role from Sunday 13 March.
