In today's science slot, Professor Allan Blackman looks at the case of Kathleen Folbigg - dubbed 'Australia's worst female serial killer' over the deaths of her four children.

A second inquiry into her convictions has been fuelled by the intervention of a group of researchers who suggest a genetic mutation may have caused their deaths.

Allan will also talk about a new study into why some people are mosquito magnets and how low frequency bass can really rock a dance floor!
