Kat Akingbade is co-presenter (with Derren Brown) of Channel 4's online show "Science of Scams" and she will talk about the making of the series and her other science projects.
Kat Akingbade was born in London and worked as an investigative researcher for The World Health Organization and undertaken research in biological anthropology at Oxford. She has carried her scientific background over into her writing and broadcasting work, and is currently completing her first novel - a crime thriller with a forensic bent. After taking a BSc in Clinical Sciences at Kings College London, her broadcasting career was kick started by receiving an Arts Council of England Bursary in 2006, and she has split her time between writing and developing television shows since.
During her Broadcasting career, Kat has reported for the BBC World Service and worked on BBC Panorama, BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio Oxford and the BBC Radio World Science Unit.
