The invasive seaweed Undaria, known as the Gorse of the sea, is wrecking havoc on the native seaweed of New Zealand. The process of picking away the pest, plant by plant, in Fiordland  has been documented by emerging filmmaker Bérénice Mathieu as part of  her work as a student at Otago University's Centre for Science  Communication.

Science communicator and 2021 New Zealander of the Year Siouxsie Wiles is dedicated to informing the general public about the issues that matter. At this year's NZ International Science Festival held  in July, she spoke about conspiracy theories, why she's dyed her hair pink for 21 years and how being a goth teenager led her into microbiology.

Michelle Walsh, a Science Communication student at the University of Otago,  investigates a recent squabble between two 'biosecurity guardians' of  New Zealand, regarding the use of new techniques in genetic  modification. This panel-style audio documentary draws on perspectives  from scientific research communities and those more directly involved  with science-related policy. Michelle talks with Elspeth Macrae, General  Manager of Manufacturing and Bioproducts at Scion, Simon Terry, Executive Director of the Sustainability Council of New Zealand and the University of Otago's Peter Dearden,  Director of Genetics Otago. A note about the production of this  podcast: the interviewees were recorded separately, and did not have the  right of reply to other people's remarks.
