SYDNEY Wed 10 Jun – Inspiring Science: Powerful Plants.
Two talks from two very different researchers. How does broccoli help prevent cancer? And why do mangroves, seagrasses and salt marshes create vastly more carbon than land-dwelling forests? Dr Astha Singh explores the amazing anti-cancerous and antimicrobial properties of brassica plants such as broccoli.
