Turning quantum physics into children's stories
Translating complex quantum physics theories into simple stories for youngsters is all in a day's work for Dr Yvette Hancock from the School of Physics and Materials Engineering at Monash University.
Dr Hancock began writing children's books on quantum physics theories last year after completing her thesis.
She has already completed one children's story featuring Ellie the Electron and there are many more in the pipeline.
"I had a burst of inspiration, and two hours later my thesis had been transformed into a story for kids," she says.
