| | | | PROGRAMME INFO | | | |
| | | Leading Edge brings you the latest news from the world of science. Geoff Watts celebrates discoveries as soon as they're being talked about - on the internet, in coffee rooms and bars; often before they're published in journals. And he gets to grips with not just the science, but with the controversies and conversation that surround it.

"If what interests you are new and exciting ideas, it's science you should be turning to. And whether it's the Human Genome Project or the origins of the Universe, Leading Edge is the place to hear about them."

Ice Physics
Geoff finds out about the physics of ice and how it is able to support the weight of an ice skater.
Beds
For patients immobilized in the hospital ward by serious injuries, bed sores or pressure ulcers (to give them their proper name) are more than an extra insult. They’re a medical complication they could well do without. And new 21st-century mattresses with built-in pressure sensors may have the answer. | | |
