This is a conversation between Brian Mailloux and Paul Stern discussing the paper "The Struggle to Govern the Commons" on which he is a co-author. Dietz, T., Ostrom, E., and Stern, P.C. (2003) The Struggle to Govern the Commons. Science 302: 1907-1912.

This is a discussion with Karin Broberg and Michael Palmgren about their publication. We go in depth to understand the evolution of arsenic detoxification in humans.

(2017) AS3MT-mediated tolerance to arsenic evolved by multiple independent horizontal gene transfers from bacteria to eukaryotes. Plos One 12: 22.

We discuss with Dave Strayer of the Cary Institute his paper by Caraco et al., 2000. It is a wide-ranging discussion about the Hudson River and its water quality with a focus on Dissolved Oxygen and Zebra Mussels. The full reference is: Dissolved Oxygen Declines in the Hudson River Associated with the Invasion of the Zebra Mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) Nina F. Caraco,*, Jonathan J. Cole,Stuart E. G.
