YouTube is one of the major content platforms for video. Videos are great to create engaging content around scientific topics, but oftentimes science evolves around things and processes that can hardly or not be filmed. Animation is a means to nevertheless help to create knowledge around these topics. In order to understand YouTube and animation better I invited Lizzy Steib to the scicomX podcast. Lizzy is the head of research at Kurzgesagt - in a Nutshell, which is among the largest if not the largest YouTube science channel out there.
