Whatever! The Science of Teens
5 x 30 minutes for ABC Australia (2009)
Whatever! The Science of Teens explores the science that drives adolescent behaviour by dissecting the lives of Australian teens and illustrating the biology behind their actions. The science is explained by Australia’s leading scientific and behavioural experts who comment along the way and conduct some unusual, but always enlightening experiments. Presenter Steve Cannane documents the teens in their natural habitats – the beach, the mall, the skate park or at wild parties, and finds that the science behind their behaviour is more than just a matter of raging hormones.
