El consumo de estupefacientes se ha convertido en un problema social y de salud pública en todo el planeta. En los últimos años destaca el abuso del fentanilo en EEUU por sus dramáticos efectos en los consumidores, que parecen muertos vivientes. Hemos entrevistado a José Cárdenas Quesada, investigador del Instituto de Investigación Biomédica de Málaga. Con Pedro Gargantilla hemos conocido que es la “sisifemia”, un riesgo laboral que provoca vivir con una carga constante de trabajo, y cuyo término proviene del mito griego de Sísifo. Eva Sacristán nos ha informado de que los urogallos pirenaicos están infectados por parásitos sanguíneos relacionados con la malaria aviar y por un herpesvirus (con testimonios de Carlos Sacristán Yagüe, investigador del CISA-INIA-CSIC) y de un estudio que alerta del riesgo de que los osos polares mueran por inanición por culpa de los veranos más largos. Hemos informado de la concesión del Premio Fundación BBVA Fronteras del Conocimiento en Ciencias Básicas a Claire Voisin y Yakov Eliashberg por tender puentes entre las denominadas geometrías algebraica y simpléctica, que exploran “espacios de grandes dimensiones, son difíciles de visualizar y hacen necesarias nuevas técnicas matemáticas para comprenderlos y estudiarlos. Con Humberto Bustince hemos analizado algunos de los riesgos de la IA y la normativa europea que pretende un mayor control. Jesús Martínez Frías nos ha hablado de la misión Psyche de la NASA hacia el asteroide del mismo nombre, una enorme roca metálica cuyos materiales se han valorado en trillones de dólares. El físico, explorador y escritor Javier Cacho ha podido pisar la isla antártica que lleva su nombre y nos ha contado cómo fue ese momento. Hemos reseñado los libros “Cosmosapiens. La evolución humana desde los orígenes del universo", de John Hands (La esfera de los libros); "Homo antecessor. El nacimiento de una especie", de José María Bermúdez de Castro y Eudald Carbonell (Crítica); “El arte de la estadística. Cómo aprender de los datos”, de David Spiegelhalter (Capitán Swing); y “Atlas de lo invisible. Mapas y gráficos que cambiarán tu visión del mundo”, de James Cheshire y Oliver Uberti (GeoPlaneta).

An atlas is a guide to the world around us, perhaps most commonly seen as a collection of road maps to help one navigate across a country. But there are hidden patterns and phenomena that exist outside of what we see in the physical world. In this episode, authors James Cheshire and Oliver Uberti pull back the curtain to reveal a panacea of information in Atlas of the Invisible and how thoughtful visualizations alongside rich narratives can bring a new clarity to our understanding of the world.

For thousands of years, tracking animals meant following footprints. Now satellites, drones, camera traps, cellphone networks, and accelerometers reveal the natural world as never before. Where the Animals Go offers a comprehensive, data-driven portrait of how creatures like ants, otters, owls, turtles, and sharks navigate the world. Based on pioneering research by scientists at the forefront of the animal-tracking revolution, James Cheshire and Oliver Uberti's charts and maps tell fascinating stories of animal behavior, explaining how warblers detect incoming storms using sonic vibrations, how baboons make decisions, and why storks prefer garbage dumps to wild forage; they follow pythons racing through the Everglades, a lovelorn wolf traversing the Alps, and humpback whales visiting undersea mountains.
