JOIN US AT THE 2026 DUCKS UNLIMITED EXPO! July 31 - August 2 at the RENASANT CONVENTION CENTER in Memphis, TN Learn what's driving a new botulism outbreak in the Klamath Basin and what conservation partners are doing to help protect thousands of waterfowl. Host Dr. Mike Brasher is joined by Jeff McCreary, Ducks Unlimited's Director of Operations for the Western Region, and Dr. Dan Smith, DU waterfowl scientist, to discuss deteriorating habitat conditions in one of North America's most important waterfowl landscapes.After a winter of record-low snowpack and a spring that produced exceptional numbers of ducklings, water levels in the Klamath Basin are rapidly declining.  Those conditions have created an elevated risk of avian botulism, threatening young ducks and molting birds concentrated on the region's wetlands. Jeff and Dan explain how the outbreak developed, why the Klamath Basin remains critical to the Pacific Flyway, and how Ducks Unlimited and partners are working to bring additional water into the refuge system before conditions worsen. Topics CoveredWhy botulism outbreaks occur during drought conditionsThe connection between snowpack, water availability, and wetland healthHow more than 100,000 ducklings were produced despite current challengesWhat “flow-through” water management could mean for the Klamath BasinThe importance of Lower Klamath and Tule Lake refugesWhy collaboration is essential to solving long-term water issuesHow DU and partners are responding to current conditionsThe future of waterfowl habitat in the Pacific FlywayListen now: www.ducks.org/DUPodcastSend feedback: DUPodcast@ducks.orgSPONSORS:Bird Dog Whiskey and Cocktails:Whether you're winding down with your best friend, or celebrating with your favorite crew, Bird Dog brings award-winning flavor to every moment.

Good afternoon, I'm _ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened up 121-points this morning from Friday's close, at 42,793 on turnover of 15.5-billion N-T. The market saw its biggest single-day drop on record last Friday -- tumbling just over 2,950-points -- as a sell-off in artificial intelligence-related shares dragged Wall Street lower and weighed on global equities. President Lai honors F-16V pilot who died in January training accident President Lai Ching-te has presented a posthumous presidential citation (追授獎項) honoring Air Force pilot Hsin Po-yi. Hsin died after his F-16V fighter jet crashed during a nighttime training mission off of Hualien in January. Hsin's father, Hsin Chin-yu, accepted the citation from Lai at a ceremony. Hsin served with the Air Force's Hualien-based 5th Tactical Composite Wing and was posthumously promoted from captain to major and awarded the Order of Loyalty and Valor. Hsin's F-16V fighter jet disappeared from radar on the evening of January 6 on a routine raining mission shortly after he reported becoming separated from the lead aircraft while flying through clouds. The aircraft's flight data recorder was recovered in March.

US STRIKES ABADAN AS WASHINGTON FACES QUESTIONS OVER MILITARY READINESS FOR WIDER IRAN CONFLICT The United States struck targets on the outskirts of the Iranian city of Abadan on Sunday evening, extending what has now been more than a week of consecutive American strikes against Iran. The latest attack came as the White House faces accusations (指控) of sending mixed signals on its strategy — having reimposed sanctions on Iranian oil exports after initially lifting them under a memorandum of understanding that now appears to have collapsed. Kate Fisher reports from Washington. Nigeria UNICEF Warns of Child Malnutrition Health workers in northern Nigeria say more children are relapsing into malnutrition and cite knock-on effects from the war in the Middle East. The region is already under pressure from an insurgency crisis. The conflict in the Middle East has worsened food security for millions, especially children. UNICEF warns that if the war continues, millions more children could fall into poverty. The war has also affected fertilizer supplies and prices, threatening the planting season and worsening the fate (命運) of mostly farming communities in northern Nigeria. Hungary President Signs to End his Term Hungary's president has signed a constitutional amendment ending his term, resolving a dispute with the new government. Prime Minister Péter Magyar, who defeated Viktor Orbán in April, had urged Tamás Sulyok to resign, accusing him of failing to oppose Orbán's antidemocratic actions. When Sulyok refused, Magyar's party passed an amendment for his immediate removal. Sulyok signed it on the final day before the deadline. His term officially ends today. Magyar's government has been dismantling (拆解) Orbán's influence by removing appointees and making judicial reforms. It also plans to nominate a new president soon. That was the I.C.R.T.

Is life the product of chance alone, or does its existence point toward deeper scientific or philosophical questions? In this thought-provoking episode of The ‘X' Zone, Rob McConnell welcomes physicist, author, and science educator Robert Piccioni to explore the fascinating question: Can Life Really Be Merely an Accident? Drawing upon his background in physics and cosmology, Dr. Piccioni examines the scientific principles surrounding the origin of life, the apparent fine-tuning of the universe, probability, evolution, and the fundamental laws of nature. He discusses how science approaches these profound questions while distinguishing between evidence, theory, and philosophical interpretation. Throughout the conversation, Rob and Dr. Piccioni explore topics including cosmology, biology, the conditions necessary for life, and the ongoing dialogue between science, philosophy, and theology. Rather than offering simple answers, the discussion encourages listeners to think critically about one of humanity's oldest and most compelling questions. Whether you're interested in physics, cosmology, biology, philosophy, or the origins of life, this episode offers an engaging exploration of the scientific and philosophical ideas that continue to shape our understanding of existence.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

What if our obsession with “dangerous” sun is killing us?If you (recklessly) leave your urban office for lunch, you are told to yank your hat down low. If you (again, recklessly) let your kids dash into the backyard, you are told to slather them in sunscreen—or learn to live with the guilt.And yes, sun avoidance undoubtedly prevents some skin cancers, including the deadliest type, melanomaBut a recent study suggests sunlight contributes to hundreds of thousands of deaths every year in the United States alone—orders of magnitude more than the estimated 8400 annual US melanoma deaths.In this episode, we discuss evidence linking sun avoidance toalmost a million annual deaths in the US and Europe alone, exceeding the number caused by global military conflictsbreast, pancreatic, colon, and lung cancers, as well as heart disease, high blood pressure, and stroketo INCREASED risk of death in those diagnosed with sun-induced melanoma.Yes, you read that right; some melanoma deaths may be related to too little sunlight.  (But do understand that this is complex--sunlight DOES cause melanoma. Well, some melanomas....)We also discuss why supplementing with vitamin D pills fails to remedy these terrible conditions, and what a thoughtful person can do instead, while staying safe.We hope you enjoy this episode, and that it helps you enjoy the sun again--thoughtfully, of course. References and further reading:  Sunlight: Time for a Rethink?Benefits of oral Polypodium leucotomas extract in MM high risk patients (This is an ingredient in Life Extension's Shade Factor, mentioned in this episode by Dr. Gordon). Uses of Polypodium leucotomos Extract in Oncodermatology  Calzari et alInsufficient Sun Exposure Has Become a Real Public Health Problem.

Lisa Ressler has spent more than 35 years working in science-based businesses, including DuPont and Evonik, and now serves as Chief Commercial Officer at Amyris. In this conversation, she joins Karl and Erum to discuss where Amyris stands today, what the company learned from Chapter 11, and why returning its focus to B2B science was the right move. Lisa explains the company's 1.5 million-liter fermentation facility in Barra Bonita, Brazil, its partnership with Wacker to develop bio-based personal care ingredients, and the simple framework she uses to decide which markets are worth pursuing. She also shares what it takes for a bio-based ingredient to move beyond higher “green” pricing and reach large-scale commercial use, making the case that strong performance is ultimately what convinces customers.Grow Everything brings the bioeconomy to life. Hosts Karl Schmieder and Erum Azeez Khan share stories and interview the leaders and influencers changing the world by growing everything. Biology is the oldest technology. And it can be engineered. What are we growing?Learn more at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.messaginglab.com/groweverything⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Chapters:(00:00:00) - Introduction and catching up after the Fourth of July(00:05:00) - Soil health, regenerative agriculture, and current biotech trends(00:10:00) - Biomanufacturing in China and the global race for scale and speed(00:15:00) - Meet Lisa Ressler, Chief Commercial Officer at Amyris(00:19:00) - What Amyris produces and how it works with partners across the supply chain(00:24:00) - Amyris's return to B2B and what enterprise customers want after Chapter 11(00:31:00) - How Amyris and Wacker collaborate from research through development(00:37:00) - Proprietary molecules and how Amyris chooses which markets to pursue(00:41:00) - Exploring Amyris's molecule portfolio, from squalane to vaccines(00:48:00) - The future of precision fermentation and quick-fire questionsLinks and Resources:AmyrisLisa RoesslerAmyris' sustainable squaleneAmyris, Inc. Launches New Production Line at Brazil Precision Fermentation PlantWACKER and biomanufacturing pioneer Amyris join forces in the personal-care sector179. D.C. Climate Week LIVE: The Road to Remake Everything183. The American Biotech Blueprint: Senator Todd Young on Biodiversity as National Security73. At the Bleeding Edge: Cresilon's Joe Landolina on Rapid Wound Care141. Gut Check! Viome's Momo & Guru Decode Your Inner Microbiome158. Mycelium On, Sound Off: How GOB's Lauryn Menard Makes Biomaterials Feel Like CultureSilvaBio and Foray Bioscience Announce Acceleration to Restore the American ChestnutCommon Ground - agriculture documentarySiphonophore - longest animalBioInnovations Events - For 25% off use code: Grow EverythingTopics Covered:precision fermentation, Amyris, squalane, sustainable beauty ingredients, bio-based chemistry, PFAS alternatives, industrial biotechnology, synthetic biology, vaccine adjuvant squalene, green chemistryHave a question or comment? Message us here:Text or Call (804) 505-5553⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ / ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grow Everything⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music by: Nihilore Production by: Amplafy Media

We've been warned that the sun is dangerous... but what if that advice is leaving out half the story? In this episode of the Align Podcast, Jonathan Jarecki challenges the fear-based narrative around sunlight and explains how light exposure may influence hormones, vitamin D, skin health, and our biology. Jonathan and Aaron question common claims about sunscreen, sunglasses, sunburn, red light therapy, and sun gazing, while examining how modern indoor living may be weakening our relationship with natural light.

The trial is aimed at retinal cells, with the hope that encouraging them to behave as if they were young again could improve sight in the affected patients. If it proves to be safe, it could open the door to a whole raft of therapies based on the emerging field of cellular rejuvenation. To understand more about this cutting edge research, Madeleine Finlay hears from science editor Ian Sample and from Paul Knoepfler, professor of cell biology and human anatomy at the university of California, Davis..

Imagine a dark warehouse. Racks and racks of devices with wires, tubes, and electronics sticking out. The next AI data center? No. This is Lila Sciences‘ dream for the future of science. A dark warehouse full of AI-guided robotics and lab equipment, cranking out new experiments 24/7, building toward a scientific superintelligence.Their automated lab is almost hypnotizing to watch. They have floating plates zipping around on Wall-E-esque tracks, used vision-language models to control Windows 95 boxes, and created the world's largest collection of voided warranties. In the process they've built a massive library of scientific reasoning tokens. Over 10 trillion of them, all experimentally validated.No warranties were voided in the making of this videoTo say Lila is ambitious is an understatement. Their goal is a scientific superintelligence wired directly into the wet lab. They are all in on the bitter lesson, and the thesis follows from it: a lab is an infinite token generator. Produce data at scale, and the synergies give you a general reasoner that can tackle any scientific problem. They are committing hard. Biology, chemistry, drug discovery, and materials science, all at the same time. Time will tell if it works, but it is an exciting hypothesis.In our latest episode we sat down with Lila's very own Andy Beam (CTO) and Rafa Gómez-Bombarelli (CSO, physical sciences) and went on a journey through the possibilities of AI-run science, almost as wide-ranging as Lila's goals.Did we mention they do both materials science and biology? In the same AI science factory? Same time, same lab, same AI. Finally a guest who can settle a long-running debate we've had amongst ourselves: is biology or materials science harder?Watch to find out!We discuss:* The internet is spent, science is next. Why Lila thinks the scientific method is the last untapped internet-scale dataset, and why they treat RL as a data generation mechanism with nature as the verifier.* The lab as a data center. Instruments as nodes on a graph, a magnetically levitating “PCI bus” transport layer between them, orchestration as a slurm queue. Andy is not short on analogies.* Why Lila insists it is not an automation company. They optimize for flexibility and generalizability over raw throughput, which means humans stay below the API line wherever automating does not pay.* Your experiment has a runtime. We put Escalante Bio's question to Andy: if science is the token generator, what is the runtime of your data collection? His answer, in short, is that you cannot make the ribosome go faster. Why Lila bets on fast round-over-round iteration rather than big noisy multiplexed screens, and how Rafa's team rebuilt a gas sorption measurement to run roughly 2,500x faster.* What is actually in 10 trillion scientific tokens. Not sequences. Experimentally verified reasoning traces, a kind of data that Andy argues exists on the internet in quantities that round to zero.* Breadth as a path to depth. Small molecule chemistry priors transferring to metal organic frameworks for carbon capture, and the claim that the general model beats domain-specific models sample for sample.* If you have the data, what do you need the model for? Sri Kosuri's koan about the ML-for-drug-discovery business model, and Andy's answer: the coding model got better because it also read Shakespeare and carnitas recipes.* The serendipity they want to automate. Emily Whitehead survived the first pediatric CAR-T cure only because the doctor treating her happened to know, from pediatric arthritis, which antibody would blunt her IL-6 response. Roll that dice again and you probably lose her. Breadth is how you stop depending on luck.* Move 37 for catalysts. Model suggestions for platinum-group-free electrocatalysts that went from boring, to what a 40-paper expert called stupid, to the best performers they have made.* Six months to in vivo CAR-T data in non-human primates, and the zero-FTE virtual startup commercial model that fell out of it. For context on why that number is startling, AbbVie paid $2.1B for Capstan on the strength of preclinical in vivo CAR-T data.* You cannot have scientific superintelligence if you are just a good test taker. Ken Stanley, who wrote Why Greatness Cannot Be Planned, runs open-endedness at Lila. RL at scale gives you a ruthlessly Vulcan problem solver. Machine creativity is a different thing, and it is the part nobody has solved.* The chain of thought is an unreliable narrator. The model reasons in latent space and only emits tokens. Sometimes it skips the experiment entirely and is still right. So how much do you trust the reasoning versus the verifier?* Reward hacking when the rollout is physical. Chains of thought that collapse into repetition, and a model that got annoyed and swore at the scientist who kept asking it to redo a plate map. What happens when a pathological loop has a wet lab inside it?* The bittersweet lesson. Rafa's inversion of the bitter lesson: in AI, scaling is a roadmap. In materials, scaling is a filter, because only the things that scale end up mattering.* Not your typical Flagship company. Why a famously single-asset biotech incubator spun out a platform bet, and Andy's line that if Lila called itself a biopharma it would have a top-three GPU cluster.* Bottlenecks they would remove by fiat. Sim-to-real for physics-based simulation, and the fact that RL training runs at roughly 5% mean FLOP utilization.Watch on YouTube: This is a public episode.

What if the biggest obstacle to greater abundance isn't attracting more—but feeling safe enough to receive it? In this episode of the Money Lighthouse Podcast for Spiritual Entrepreneurs, Michel Ai Reavis concludes her three-part neuroscience and money series by exploring the fascinating connection between the nervous system and our ability to receive success, money, opportunities, visibility, and support. Listeners will discover why expansion can sometimes feel unexpectedly uncomfortable, even when it is something they've been praying for and working toward.Drawing on neuroscience and gentle nervous system awareness, Michel explains why the brain naturally prefers what is familiar over what is possible, and how that tendency can influence financial decisions, business growth, pricing, visibility, and the willingness to accept abundance. Rather than viewing hesitation or self-doubt as personal flaws, this episode invites spiritual entrepreneurs to see these experiences through a compassionate, empowering lens.Listeners will leave with practical, supportive ways to gradually expand their capacity to receive, celebrate success without fear, and create greater safety around prosperity, recognition, and joyful growth. If you've ever wondered why success can sometimes feel just as vulnerable as struggle, this encouraging conversation offers both insight and hope for your next season of expansion.Action StepsPractice receiving with intention. The next time someone offers a compliment, support, encouragement, or appreciation, simply say, "Thank you," and allow yourself to fully receive it without minimizing or deflecting it.Celebrate your wins—big and small. Pause to acknowledge each success before rushing to the next goal. Help your nervous system learn that growth, achievement, and abundance are safe.Notice where receiving feels uncomfortable. Pay attention to moments when you hesitate to accept opportunities, charge appropriately, ask for help, or welcome visibility. Approach these moments with curiosity rather than judgment.Ask a new empowering question. Instead of asking, "What if it doesn't work?" gently explore, "What if it does?" Notice what thoughts, emotions, and possibilities begin to emerge.Journaling PromptsWhere in my business or financial life do I already feel safe receiving, and where do I still notice resistance?If success, visibility, and abundance felt completely safe, what opportunities would I be willing to say yes to today?What is one small way I can intentionally practice receiving more support, joy, or prosperity this week?If this episode encouraged you, inspired a new perspective, or helped you better understand your relationship with receiving, consider sharing it with another spiritual entrepreneur who may need this reminder. Together, we can create healthier relationships with money, success, and abundance—one gentle step at a time.Thank you for listening to the Money Lighthouse Podcast for Spiritual Entrepreneurs. Be sure to subscribe so you never miss a future episode, and if this conversation resonated with you, leaving a review is a wonderful way to help more purpose-driven entrepreneurs discover the show. Your willingness to receive may become the very thing that allows your light to reach those who need it most.Contact Michel: michel@moneylighthouse.com

"Geometry is the cilantro of math. People are not neutral about it," says Jordan Ellenberg. The mathematician is aware not everyone loves math like he does. But his book is not about the kind of geometry some people feel intimidated by. It's about geometry as a way of thinking. As a method of reasoning and argument. And as a system for making sense of the world. *This episode originally aired on May 11, 2022.Guest in this episode:Jordan Ellenberg is a mathematician is a child prodigy. He scored a perfect 800 on the math portion of his college entrance exams — the SAT's — at the age of 12. He's a Guggenheim Fellow, a Harvard graduate, and a professor of mathematics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He's also the author of Shape: The Hidden Geometry of Information, Biology, Strategy, Democracy, and Everything Else.

Send us Fan MailBlood-brain barrier as a dynamic interface allowing selective passage of nutrients, peptides, and gut hormones.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Blood-Brain Barrier Structure: Capillary endothelial cells with tight junctions, absent fenestrae, and minimal vesicles create a selective interface; supported by astrocytes and pericytes.Crossing Mechanisms: Lipid-soluble small molecules diffuse passively; glucose, amino acids, and regulatory peptides use saturable transporters whose rates vary by need.Peptide Transport: Many peptides cross via lipid solubility or specific transporters; rate, not all-or-none presence, determines biological relevance; efflux systems remove some (e.g. certain enkephalins).Dynamic Regulation: Transporters for leptin and insulin are modulated by epinephrine, triglycerides, and brain demand; changes occur in aging and Alzheimer's (reduced glucose uptake, impaired Aβ efflux).Circumventricular Organs: Leaky capillary regions allow rapid sampling of blood signals while tanycytes limit spread to surrounding brain tissue.Drug Delivery Challenges: Small lipid-soluble drugs, barrier disruption (e.g. focused ultrasound), and “Trojan-horse” strategies each have limitations; intranasal delivery shows rapid brain distribution.Peptides & Brain Effects: Gut peptides like GLP-1 analogs, insulin, and ghrelin influence cognition and memory; brain entry predicts central effects.GUEST: William Banks, MD is a physician-scientist and leading researcher on the blood-brain barrier. He has focused on humoral brain-body communication, peptide transport, and the barrier's role in health and disease.RELATED CONTENT:M&M 298 | GLP-1s & Novel Peptides in Obesity, Diabetes & Metabolic Health | Katrin SvenssonSupport the showSupport my work:Good Chemistry: Personalized, science-based health consulting.

Isle Royale is one of the least visited of America's National Parks. Located in the northwest corner of Lake Superior, it's a tough place to get to.  Access is only by seaplane, ferry or private boat. But once visitors do come, they are likely to return. Karen Bacula has been coming to this remote island since 1997. As a teacher, she also brought students to explore this unique archipelago of islands. Now, retired, she volunteers as director of Michigan Tech's Isle Royale Institute and coordinates Moosewatch volunteers, helping people take part in fieldwork that supports the world's longest-running predator-prey study. In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with Karen about citizen science, wilderness learning and the lasting pull of Isle Royale.Quotes:“What connected me and made me want to just keep coming back was the beauty, the quiet, the simplicity, but yet incredibly complex whole area of what was there being surrounded by the lake. And many of the people I met were just absolutely wonderful.”“The power of the island, the power of the lake, the serenity, but also realizing that at the drop of a hat, the weather can change. So there's predictability and uncertainty in every step that you take. And I like that feeling.”“There's something special and new about it each time and getting to see the changes.”“We're looking for dead moose and looking for the condition of the skeleton to see what the moose age-wise, health-wise was like, potentially how it died.”“It becomes very cross-curricular at all different grade levels. But they all come out with the big excitement being to learn how the study's done and to learn the field techniques for collecting data for this study.”“Two things I tell them to pack that are not necessarily on the gear list is their patience and sense of humor.”“Work to bring some of what you just felt right now with the people you met and living as close to the earth as you can live, bring some of that back with you and hold on to that.”Helpful links:Learn more about the Wolf-Moose Project:isleroyalewolf.orgLearn more about joining a Moosewatch expedition:isleroyalewolf.org/volunteer-moosewatchLearn more about Moosewatch for Educators:isleroyalewolf.org/moosewatch-for-educatorsLearn more about Isle Royale wolf-moose population dynamics:isleroyalewolf.org/population-dynamicsLearn more about supporting the research through the Wolf-Moose Foundation:wolfmoosefoundation.orgLearn more about the Northern Moose Alliance: moosealliance.org Plan a visit to Isle Royale National Park:nps.gov/isro/planyourvisit/index.htmConnect with us:Lake Superior Podcast Page: https://nplsf.org/podcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/NationalParksOfLakeSuperiorFoundationSponsors:Cafe Imports – Minneapolis-based importers of specialty green coffees since 1993, focused on sustainability.

"Everyone gets cancer five times a day — your body already knows how to take care of it." Sam Bertram is the co-founder and CEO of OnePointOne, the vertical-farming company behind the Willo brand. With his brother John (CTO), Sam is building fully automated indoor farms — powered by AutoStore robotics, AI, and precision LED light — that grow nutrient-dense produce in about 15 days, with no soil and no sunlight. But the vision goes far beyond salad: using plants as living factories to manufacture pharmaceutical-grade molecules (like monoclonal antibodies) at a fraction of today's cost, and eventually "closing the loop" on human nutrition — food grown to your own blood work. *Reduce your risk of Alzheimer's with my science-backed protocol for women 30+: * https://go.neuroathletics.com.au/yout...

Scientists often talk about the importance of flora and fauna to the health of our planet, but Dr Toby Kiers, an evolutionary biologist and founder of the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks, wants us to consider another force: fungi. Her work charting the planet's vital underground systems has earned her numerous awards, including a MacArthur fellowship and a Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement (sometimes called the ‘green' Nobel). She tells Ian Sample about her work mapping fungal networks on the remote Palmyra Atoll in the Pacific Ocean, and what the research reveals about fungi's often invisible role.

In this episode, we are speaking with Dr. Katie Barott all about coral and coral reefs! Katie is an assistant professor at the University of Pennsylvania and head of the Barott Lab, where they study the ecology and physiology of coral symbiosis, researching the small-scale mechanisms in order to understand the ecosystem dynamics of coral. In other words, Katie and her lab are interested in understanding mechanisms on a cellular and microbial level that determine coral responses to climate change. If you can understand the symbiotic relationship within this ecosystem, you can get a clearer perspective on how and why environmental events like coral bleaching are happening. I am fascinated by symbiosis from the microbial level to the societal level of humans and animals.They even call coral reefs cities for how they interact and operate. Another example of how much our lives mirror many ecosystems!Thanks for being here, and lots of love.Episode Time Stamps: Introduction: 00:17Interview: 6:52Show Notes:https://www.barottlab.com/

Show Notes HOST Melody Hartzler | | Book Appointment AROUND THE TABLE Dr. Dave Rabin | Visit Website In Today's Episode Joining Melody on this episode is Dr. Dave Rabin, a board-certified psychiatrist, neuroscientist, and co-founder of Apollo Neuro, to explore how chronic stress, trauma, and nervous system dysregulation affect nearly every aspect of our health. Dr. Rabin shares the science behind the body's stress response, the role of the vagus nerve, and how creating a greater sense of safety can improve sleep, focus, resilience, and recovery. Together, they discuss why stress isn't something we can eliminate, but something we can learn to regulate. From breathwork and mindfulness to wearable technology like Apollo Neuro, this conversation offers practical strategies for improving nervous system health and building long-term resilience. Key Take Aways Chronic stress and unresolved trauma can disrupt the nervous system, contributing to poor sleep, anxiety, inflammation, and chronic disease. The vagus nerve plays a key role in helping the body shift from a stress response into a state of recovery and healing. Nervous system regulation can be supported through simple daily practices such as breathwork, mindfulness, movement, social connection, and wearable technologies. Feeling safe is a biological need that directly influences our ability to heal, learn, perform, and build resilience. Healing isn't about avoiding stress—it's about training the body to recover from stress more effectively. Topics Discussed 00:00 – Welcome to Table Talk Introduction to today's conversation on stress, the nervous system, and resilience. 01:11 – Dr. Dave Rabin's Journey & Apollo Neuro How his work with PTSD patients led to the creation of Apollo Neuro. 04:00 – Understanding the Stress Response The science behind the vagus nerve, safety, and nervous system regulation. 07:00 – How Apollo Neuro Works How wearable touch therapy differs from traditional vagus nerve stimulation. 11:38 – Trauma, Chronic Stress & Health How unresolved stress impacts sleep, immunity, focus, and long-term wellness. 12:30 – Supporting Children & Neurodiversity Using nervous system regulation for ADHD, autism, anxiety, and emotional resilience. 17:00 – You Can't Eliminate Stress Why learning to recover from stress matters more than avoiding it. 20:27 – The Biology of Healing & the Placebo Effect How mindset, safety, and expectation influence healing outcomes. 22:20 – Stress, Blood Pressure & Chronic Disease The connection between stress regulation and long-term physical health. 23:00 – Building Daily Resilience Dr. Rabin shares his favorite Apollo Neuro settings and daily practices. 26:41 – Community, Connection & Safety Why meaningful relationships are essential for nervous system health. 27:34 – Closing Thoughts & Resources Final advice and where to learn more about Apollo Neuro.

Sunlight feels harmless until you zoom in far enough to see what it's doing inside a single skin cell. Today we follow that path, from UVA and UVB radiation to DNA damage, then through the built-in systems your body uses to prevent skin cancer in the first place. We keep it plainspoken but accurate, because understanding the biology makes the prevention advice feel a lot less like nagging and a lot more like control.We talk about melanin and why tanning is a defense response, not a health goal, plus the difference between DNA damage and a permanent mutation. Then we meet one of the most important safety players in the story: P53, the protein that can pause cell division for repairs or trigger apoptosis when a cell is too damaged to keep. We also explain why sunburn pain and peeling are signs of real cellular injury, not just a temporary cosmetic annoyance.From there, we compare basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma, including why melanoma depth is such a big deal for spread and survival. We cover why most moles never become cancer, what changes are worth acting on, and how to use the ABCDE method and the ugly duckling sign. We also address a persistent myth directly: skin cancer can occur in every skin color, and it may show up in different places like palms, soles, and under nails.We're Ed Delesky, a family medicine doctor, and Nicola Aruffo, a nurse, and we want you to leave with a practical plan: reduce future UV exposure, know what's normal for your skin, and get help when something evolves.

I'd like to think that plastic is an apolitical subject. None of us want to see our environment or our bodies polluted with this stuff, and so it brings me great pleasure to focus on one of the biggest overlaps of our times: the quest to reduce plastic in our bodies and our environment. We've done a few shows on this over the years, and this week is wonderful.Let me introduce you to Kal Glanznig. He's a filmmaker, a counsellor in his local government area, and a leading youth ocean and climate champion. He's also a young man of 25 who got his body tested for phthalate levels due to concerns for future fertility and was shocked to see how high his levels were, as he considered himself having a very healthy nature-focused lifestyle. He's created documentaries, Rising Up, back in 2024, and this year just released The Plastic Country. He's a multiple TEDx and UN COP speaker, and he's driven by the motto "Change Happens Locally". In high school, he led a 100 kW solar project, leading to 20 schools to follow suit. This guy is definitely not someone who rests on his laurels. He is here to effect change.Kal is on a mission to make it clear that if we don't shape the policies that make things truly better at every stage of government, then chances are we just keep going in swings and roundabouts on social media, either trying to raise awareness or trying to complain about how nothing is happening.

Vanessa Vongsouthi, Research Founder and Head of Bioengineering at Samsara Eco, joins host Erum on the Grow Everything Podcast to discuss how engineered enzymes and AI are making it possible to recycle textiles and plastics repeatedly. Vanessa explains how Samsara uses AI-assisted protein design and ancestral sequence reconstruction to create enzymes that break down complex polymers, including Nylon 6,6, into their original chemical building blocks. Those materials can then be returned to existing supply chains and used to create virgin-equivalent products that are indistinguishable from materials made from petrochemicals. She also shares the story behind the world's first enzymatically recycled Nylon 6,6 jacket, created in partnership with Lululemon, and explores how Samsara Eco was built through Main Sequence Ventures' orchestration model alongside partners such as Woolworths and the Australian National University. The conversation also looks at what a future built around distributed, local recycling infrastructure could mean for designers, manufacturers, consumers, and the global circular economy.Grow Everything brings the bioeconomy to life. Hosts Karl Schmieder and Erum Azeez Khan share stories and interview the leaders and innovators changing the world through biology. Biology is the world's oldest technology, and it can be engineered.

As part of our summer replay series, we're revisiting one of our favorite conversations from the past year. Mark Zuckerberg and Dr. Priscilla Chan join Ben Horowitz, Vineeta Agarwala, and Erik Torenberg to discuss the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative's ambitious effort to help cure, prevent, and manage disease by the end of the century. Rather than funding individual breakthroughs, CZI is focused on building the tools and infrastructure that can accelerate scientific discovery across entire fields. The conversation explores Biohub, Cell Atlas, virtual cell models, open biological datasets, and the growing role of AI in helping researchers better understand human biology. They discuss why biology still lacks a "periodic table of elements," how AI could help scientists test hypotheses before running expensive experiments, and why pairing frontier biology with frontier AI may unlock a new era of medical discovery.   Resources: Follow Mark Zuckerberg on X: https://x.com/finkd Follow Dr. Priscilla Chan on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/priscillachan Follow Ben Horowitz on X: https://x.com/bhorowitz Follow Vineeta Agarwala on X: https://x.com/vintweeta Stay Updated:Find a16z on YouTube: YouTubeFind a16z on XFind a16z on LinkedInListen to the a16z Show on SpotifyListen to the a16z Show on Apple PodcastsFollow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

Dr. Robyn Nadolny is a Biologist and the Chief of the Vector-Borne Disease Branch at the Defense Centers for Public Health at Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD (DCPH-A). The flagship program of the Vector-Borne Disease Branch is MilTICK, a free, rapid tick-testing program for military beneficiaries. The results provide a tool in the diagnostic toolbox for military beneficiaries, and Dr. Nadolny uses the passive surveillance data generated to better understand changing tick-borne disease dynamics and mitigate risks to US Service Members and their communities. She is also working on tick-borne disease surveillance projects worldwide to support military communities. Dr. Nadolny came to DCPH-A in 2016 after completing her PhD in Ecological Sciences from Old Dominion University (ODU) in Norfolk, VA. She also holds a M.S. in Biology from ODU, and a B.S. in Ecology, Evolution, and Behavioral Biology from Beloit College in Beloit, WI. Her research focuses on the prevention of tick-borne disease through understanding and breaking tick-host-pathogen-environment cycles. Dr. Nadolny has co-authored over 30 peer-reviewed publications and is interested in the intersection of ecology and public health.In this episode, we discuss the types of diseases that can be transmitted to military personnel (and anyone else) through ticks, how those diseases work, where and when the risk is greatest, and what you can do to protect yourself. To visit the MilTICK site, which you can use to understand the risk of tick-borne disease at your military installation and submit ticks for testing, go here:https://ph.health.mil/topics/entomology/kits/Pages/HumanTickTestKitProgram.aspxThere are also many civilian labs where you can submit a tick for testing at a low cost. For example:Pennsylvania Tick Research Lab: https://www.ticklab.org/Old Dominion University, Virginia: https://sites.wp.odu.edu/tick-team/what-we-do/tick-testing/sending-us-your-ticks/Ticknology: https://www.ticknology.org/order-testTimestamps:00:23 Introduction to Dr. Robyn Nadolny01:48 What are the Most Common Diseases Spread by Ticks?03:24 Lesser Known Tick-Spread Diseases07:19 Alpha Gal: It's Not Just Beef Off the Table 09:27 The Implications of Lyme Disease14:16 How Does the Body React After Multiple Tick Bites?16:06 Rates of These Diseases 18:21 What Terrain Do Ticks Prefer? 21:31 What Time of Year are Ticks the Worst?23:13 Tick Life Cycles  27:56 Soldiers Protecting Themselves from Ticks in the Field33:19 Dealing with a Tick Bite in the Field37:41 Prevalence of Diseases in Ticks42:34 Vaccines for Tick-Borne Diseases for Pets and People45:45 Treated Clothing and Repellents48:21 OutroSend us a message

Send us Fan MailFerroptosis, an iron-dependent cell death pathway driven by lipid peroxidation; chronoferoptosis, in which chronic stress sensitizes neurons gradually.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Cell Death Pathways: Apoptosis proceeds through regulated steps with surface “eat me” signals that enable non-inflammatory clearance by phagocytes, whereas ferroptosis and related pathways release cellular contents that can amplify local damage and inflammation.Ferroptosis Discovery: Work on glutamate toxicity in neuronal cell lines first identified a glutathione-depletion pathway termed oxytosis; parallel studies in cancer cells renamed and generalized it as ferroptosis to highlight iron's catalytic role.Lipid Peroxidation: Polyunsaturated fatty acids in membranes are oxidized non-enzymatically when ferrous iron reacts with hydrogen peroxide in the Fenton reaction, generating hydroxyl radicals that produce toxic lipid peroxides and reactive carbonyls that modify proteins.GPX4 & Glutathione: Glutathione peroxidase-4 is an enzyme that reduces lipid peroxides within membranes and requires glutathione as cofactor; depletion of either component removes this critical line of defense.Chronoferoptosis: Nine-day treatment of differentiated neuronal cells with chronic iron or glutathione synthesis inhibitor reduced GPX4 protein, raised basal lipid peroxidation, and increased cell death after addition of otherwise sublethal secondary stressors.Protective Compounds: Screening identified flavonoids such as fisetin and sterubin plus synthetic molecules J-147 and CMS-121 that block lipid peroxidation directly or indirectly and, in several cases, also raise glutathione levels.Human Disease Evidence: Postmortem brain tissue from Alzheimer's and Parkinson's patients shows elevated lipid peroxidation markers and altered iron handling in vulnerable regions; similar changes appear in animal models of multiple diseases.Dietary & NRF2 Links: Compounds that activate the NRF2 transcription factor, including sulforaphane from broccoli and certain flavonoids, upregulate antioxidant enzymes including GPX4 and may support long-term cellular resilience.ABOUT THE GUEST: Pamela Maher, PhD is a research professor at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, California.

JOIN US AT THE 2026 DUCKS UNLIMITED EXPO! July 31 - August 2 at the RENASANT CONVENTION CENTER in Memphis, TN Great hunts depend on great gear — and the details behind that gear matter more than most people realize.In this episode of the DUX Series, host Jimbo Robinson and co‑host Logan Nevins sit down with Zach Scheidegger and Joe Schroeder of ALPS Outdoors to talk product innovation, design challenges, and what it takes to build gear for serious hunters.The conversation dives into ALPS' evolution from mountaineering equipment into a full outdoor brand with thousands of products spanning hunting, camping, and beyond. From layout blinds to blind bags to unexpected hits like their collapsible fire pit, Zach and Joe share how ideas move from concept to finished product — often through years of testing and refinement.A major focus is their partnership with Ducks Unlimited, including the growing line of DU‑branded gear and how those products help connect customers with conservation. The discussion also highlights the importance of direct feedback from hunters, with events like DUX giving the ALPS team valuable insight into how their gear is used in real-world conditions.This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at how modern waterfowl gear is built — and why thoughtful design makes all the difference when it matters most.Listen now: www.ducks.org/DUPodcastSend feedback: DUPodcast@ducks.orgSPONSORS:Bird Dog Whiskey and Cocktails:Whether you're winding down with your best friend, or celebrating with your favorite crew, Bird Dog brings award-winning flavor to every moment.

Against persistent fear of death, mortality avoidance, and the vices that emerge from terror management, this episode offers a personal testimony of a Christian experience of dying. With scientific precision, disarming honesty, and immense gratitude for life, biologist Jeff Schloss offers an intimate, firsthand account of his recent diagnosis of an extremely rare terminal neurological disease: multiple system atrophy (MSA). His doctors put the prognosis plainly: "It is terminal, it is incurable, and it's rapidly progressive." A longtime and beloved Westmont College biology professor and senior scholar at BioLogos, Schloss offers speaks directly to the experience of dying—as he encounters each new week of this rapidly progressive disease. He reconsiders the meaning of a "good death": increased gratitude and awareness of gift, the reality of pain, the loss of surfing and guitar-playing, the sacredness of family, and the surprising nearness of Christ as everything else falls away. A profound witness to Christian attitudes about life and death, Schloss seeks not a hero's death, but a daily, humble life-giving commerce with Christ. Schloss revisits a life that began in a nonreligious Jewish refugee family and pivoted through a dramatic conversion as a college-dropout surf bum in Hawaii. He traces what has changed, and what hasn't, now that death is no longer an abstraction but a daily fact in his body. With pastoral care and hope, Mark Labberton explores with Schloss what it means to experience dying rather than simply anticipate it, the grief of losing fifty years of surfing and guitar-playing to pain and paralysis, the gift of Simone Weil's writing on suffering, the Heidelberg Catechism's opening words on "our only comfort in life and in death," and the difference between the thrill of surfing and the sacredness of family and commerce with Christ. Episode Highlights I knew from the second grade that I wanted to be a scientist. I was out collecting butterflies and dragonflies and looking through microscopes at all sorts of things that I couldn't believe were there. As we were talking, it just occurred to me ... he either had what I wanted, or he was clinically crazy. It is terminal, it is incurable, and it's rapidly progressive ... the process of dying I find it fascinating ... It's not fun, but it is fascinating. She wasn't sad just for herself, I'm gonna lose you. And she wasn't sad empathetically just for me, so sorry for you. It was a joint sadness that the life we had hoped to share together, we are not gonna have. The things that are most life giving are out of reach ... I've come to see it's actually not true. The things that have been delightful are out of reach ... the thing that is most life giving, and that is commerce with Christ. I think it was the single most thrilling day of my entire life ... I said, no, those weren't thrilling, those were sacred. I don't want to market this season. I'm not looking for a hero's death, or any kind of publicly attended death. I would have never guessed that in this home stretch, my son and wife could carry me up the slopes of Yosemite Valley. About Jeff Schloss Jeff Schloss has spent four decades at the intersection of evolutionary biology and Christian theology. Now retired as Distinguished Professor of Biology at Westmont College, he continues as senior scholar at BioLogos, working alongside Francis Collins for more than fifteen years. He co-edited "The Believing Primate: Scientific, Philosophical, and Theological Reflections on the Origin of Religion" and "Evolution and Ethics: Human Morality in Biological and Religious Perspective," a Templeton Science-Religion Book of Distinction winner.

Steve Stewart-Williams is an evolutionary psychologist, a professor, and an author. Why is it so difficult to talk about the differences between men and women today? It's important to recognize that men and women deserve equal respect and opportunity, but that does not mean they are exactly the same. There are differences between the sexes that can be meaningful, valuable, and even beautiful. So what are those differences, and why has discussing them become so polarising? Expect to learn why talking about sex differences is so controversial, what the actual definition of sex is, why there are challenges to the binary idea of sex, the largest sex differences between men and women, how sex differences reveal themselves via personality, the danger of denying and/or not respecting the differences in sex, and much more… Sponsors: See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: ⁠⁠https://chriswillx.com/deals⁠⁠ Get a free bottle of D3K2, an AG1 Welcome Kit, and more when you first subscribe at https://ag1.info/modernwisdom Get 35% off your first subscription on the best supplements from Momentous at https://livemomentous.com/modernwisdom Get 160+ lab tests for just $365 and save an extra $25 at https://functionhealth.com/modernwisdom Get a Free Sample Pack of LMNT's most popular flavours with your first purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom Get ChatGPT to explore ideas, solve problems, and learn faster at ⁠https://chatgpt.com Timestamps: (00:00) Why Sex Differences Are So Controversial (02:07) Why Sex Differences Matter (07:55) What Actually Is Sex?

Dr. Martha Muñoz is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Yale University. Martha is an evolutionary biologist who is working to better understand how and why evolution proceeds unevenly across the tree of life. Some features and branches of organisms evolve really quickly, while others remain inert or nearly inert for millions of years. Martha's research is uncovering the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon, and she has discovered that behavior is a key architect of evolution. For Martha, nature is a wonderful source of peace and inspiration for her research. When she's not working, she enjoys exploring the outdoors, hiking, seeing amazing views, and observing wildlife. She also spends her free time reading, going to museums, and visiting her family in New York City. She received her B.A. in biology from Boston University. Afterwards, Martha worked as a Fulbright Research Scholar at the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid, Spain. She was awarded her Ph.D. in Organismic & Evolutionary Biology from Harvard University. Next, Martha conducted postdoctoral research in the Research School of Biology at The Australian National University and subsequently the Department of Biology at Duke University. Prior to accepting her current position at Yale University, Martha served on the faculty in the Department of Biological Sciences at Virginia Tech. Martha has received numerous awards and honors, including the Boston University Department of Biology's Distinguished Alumni 'Rising Star' Award, and a Young Investigator Award from the American Society of Naturalists. She was also named a 'Scientist to Watch' by The Scientist Magazine in 2019. In our interview, Martha shares more about her life and science.

Many plants need pollen from another plant of the same species in order to reproduce, but they don't have legs so they can't simply walk around looking for a mate. As a result, many of them rely on animals to transfer pollen from one plant to another. They've developed a hugely diverse range of techniques to attract them, including their appearance, taste and smell. CrowdScience listener Alice in the UK wants to know how they have evolved to do this. To try and answer the question, presenter Anand Jagatia goes trekking up a mountain in the Philippines, battling mud and leeches in the hunt for an incredibly rare flower. Rafflesia has evolved to look and smell like rotting meat in order to attract flies, so it's the perfect example of a plant that goes to fascinating extremes to make sure it gets pollinated. It only blooms for a few days each year, so to find it Anand is going to need the help of scientists at the University of the Philippines Los Baños and Lewis Barrett, Senior Botanical Propagator at the University of Oxford Botanic Garden and Arboretum. Anand also visits the University of the Philippines Laguna Quezon Land Grant, a huge site containing more than 5,500 hectares of protected forest land. Professor Pastor Malabrigo Jr shows him a fig tree that has a fascinatingly gruesome relationship with its pollinator wasps. So how did these amazingly diverse plants end up needing insect pollinators in the first place? Dr Kyra Krakos is a professor of biology at Maryville University and a research associate at the Missouri Botanical Garden in the United States. She explains to Anand that plants are surprisingly sexy – but how did they end up needing insects to survive? Back in the Philippines, Anand's guides have never actually seen the Rafflesia flower themselves, despite many attempts. So could this be the time they finally get lucky? Presenter: Anand Jagatia Producer: Dan Welsh Editor: Ben Motley With special thanks to Dr Chris Thorogood, Associate Professor of Biology at the University of Oxford and founder of the Community for the Conservation & Research of Rafflesia(photo: Edited high angle view of Rafflesia on green gradient - Stock photo- Credit: Mohamed Tazi Cherti / 500px via Getty Images)

Bruce Lipton returns with a claim that should change how you run your life: 95% of your day is driven by subconscious programs installed before you turned seven, and once you can see them, you can rewrite them. The cell biologist behind The Biology of Belief lays out how belief quietly shapes your health, your wealth, and your relationships, and exactly how to take that power back.In this conversation Bruce hands Aubrey the working manual: the three proven ways to reprogram a limiting belief, how muscle testing surfaces the hidden program sabotaging you, and why willpower fades the moment you stop pushing while reprogramming holds for good. He makes the case that there is no real limit on what belief can do to the body, that no gene condemns you to the disease running in your family, and that you are the creator of the reality you're living. It builds into a master class in becoming the author of your own biology, and closes on the line that reframes everything: Darwin was wrong, the Bible was wrong, and the environment has been writing us all along.We discuss: – the 95/5 split between your creative mind and your subconscious, and how to flip it – the three ways to reprogram a limiting belief – muscle testing and the hidden program sabotaging your goals – why willpower fails where reprogramming lasts – the honeymoon effect and the mind's creative power – why no gene dooms you to your family's disease – the real outer limits of belief on the body – becoming a conscious parent when 95% of your day runs on autopilot| Bruce Lipton | ►Website | https://www.brucelipton.com/►Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/brucelipton►YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/user/biologyofbeliefThis episode is sponsored by►Metal Mark Gold Aurum Collectable Art | ⁠https://mtlmrk.com/⁠►Korrect Life | ⁠https://korrectlife.com/| Aubrey Marcus |►Website | ⁠⁠https://www.aubreymarcus.com/►Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/aubreymarcus►Facebook |⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/AubreyMarcus/►X |⁠ https://x.com/aubreymarcus►Substack: https://www.aubreymarcus.com/blogs/substack► Love To The Seventh Power: ⁠https://chakaruna.com/collections/books⁠Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus podcast:►iTunes |⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://apple.co/2lMZRCn ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►Spotify |⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►IHeartRadio |⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ihr.fm/3CiV4x3 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠►Partner with the Aubrey Marcus Podcast | https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/booking

Around 25 years ago, Ardem Patapoutian set out to investigate the fundamental biology behind our sense of touch. Through a long process of gene elimination, he identified a class of sensors in the cell membrane that turn physical pressure into an electrical signal. He changed the game in the field of sensation and perception, and in 2021 shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his work.  He joined Host Flora Lichtman in November 2025 to talk about his research, the odd jobs he worked along the way, and how he found a sense of belonging in science. Guests: Dr. Ardem Patapoutian is a professor and the Presidential Endowed Chair in Neurobiology at the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California.
