Cache Valley air quality has been getting a lot of attention the last several years. A few days a year, usually in the wintertime, the air pollution in Logan is worse than most other U.S. cities. On Friday's AU, Sheri Quinn talks to Utah State University environmental engineer Dr. Randy Martin about his current research on the major air pollution culprit, PM2.5

Then, Science Questions explores the Smithsonian Institution's "artifacts that define America" with the Smithsonian's Undersecretary for History, Art and Culture, Richard Kurin.

Sheri's career in radio began at 7 years old in Los Angeles, California with a secret little radio tucked under her bed that she'd fall asleep with, while listening to The Dr. Demento Radio Show. She went on to produce the first science radio show in Utah in 1999 and has been reporting local, national and international stories ever since. After a stint as news director at KZYX on northern California's Lost Coast, she landed back at UPR in 2021.
