In our latest episode, we welcome the Chief Scientific Advisor for the Department for Transport and Professor at Aston University Patricia Thornley to the podcast. In a wide ranging discussion, Rob Gross and Patricia discuss her past experience, through physics and her time at the helm of Supergen Bioenergy Hub, onto contemporary transport debates, such as the role and importance of sustainable aviation fuel, both now and in future decades, and how self-driven vehicles will change demand on our transport system.
