Welcome to Cosmos Science Daily, where journalists from the Cosmos newsroom report on the latest research and discoveries and explain the science behind the headline news. Today newsroom journalist and science graduate specialising in genetics, immunology and citizen science, Imma Perfetto is talking about new robot research making them more and more lifelike. And your host is Gail MacCallum, Cosmos editor and Star Trek fan, who never understood why if Dr Soong was smart enough to make Data, he couldn’t work out how to not make the skin yellow.
