A Massachusetts man who received a kidney from a genetically modified pig is recovering well. Also, on April 8, a total solar eclipse will plunge parts of North America into darkness. Scientists answer the questions you asked.Recipient Of Pig Kidney Transplant Leaves The HospitalLast month, Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston announced that a team of doctors had transplanted a kidney from a genetically engineered pig into a living human for the first time. This week, that patient, a 62-year-old man living with end-stage kidney disease, was sent home from the hospital, having recovered enough to be discharged. Sixty-nine genes were edited in the donor pig, including three that coded for a certain sugar found on the surface of pig cells. The edits, hopefully, will make it less likely for the human recipient to reject the transplant.Umair Irfan, senior correspondent at Vox, joins Ira Flatow to talk about the xenotransplantation advance, and how it could affect patients awaiting donor organs. They'll also talk about other stories from the week in science, including how power grid operators are preparing for the upcoming solar eclipse, NASA's search for a new lunar rover, an advance in getting robots to make appropriate faces, research into using a drug similar to the obesity medication Ozempic to delay Parkinson's symptoms, and plans for a new time zone—on the moon.Answering Your Questions About Monday's EclipseAfter months of excitement, the 2024 total solar eclipse is almost here! On Monday, April 8, the moon will line up perfectly between the Sun and the Earth. For a few short minutes, it'll plunge parts of North America into total darkness—right in the middle of the day.More than 30 million people live in the path of totality—where the moon will completely block off the sun. It stretches from northwest Mexico, across the US, and into southeastern Canada. Depending how far you are from the path, you might experience a partial eclipse. Magical, nonetheless.Ira talks with Dr. Padi Boyd, astrophysicist at NASA and host of the agency's podcast Curious Universe, and Mark Breen, meteorologist and planetarium director at the Fairbanks Museum & Planetarium in Vermont.

A solar eclipse is coming to North America on April 8, 2024. The moon will line up perfectly between the Earth and the sun, blocking out the sun's light and casting a shadow that will pass over parts of Mexico, the United States and Canada. People in the path of totality will experience a few minutes of darkness during the day as the moon perfectly covers the sun. Those not in the path of totality in those countries will still experience a partial solar eclipse. In this episode, we're answering questions about the eclipse and talking about how to keep your eyes safe if you're watching it!

Hockey, author of America's First Eclipse Chasers.  Download our learning guides: PDF | Google Slide

Solving Complex Problems with the Catalyst Innovation Program   Introducing Mark Breen of Enterprise Saint John and Patrick Parent of Moosehead Breweries Innovation creativity is not a destination, but a journey. We know that most companies have to be innovative to stay relative. However, if pace of your innovation isn't quick enough you risk your business fading away. Often companies get complacent over time and a sort of “group-think” sets in where processes and company culture are little changed over time and the result is a lack of creative thought. Today's guests have tackled similar problems and have come out stronger and more innovative on the other side. Mark Breen is an economic development officer with Enterprise Saint John, an economic development agency in New Brunswick, Canada. After looking at statistics gathered by Statistics Canada and the Conference Board of Canada regarding how innovative specific regions, Mark learned that New Brunswick was last on the innovation scorecard. To tackle this Enterprise Saint John sought input from a number of industries and found that many companies didn't have a methodology for solving complex problems with innovative ideas. The result was the formulation of the Catalyst Innovation Program. One company that signed on to try to tackle is energy sustainability problem was Moosehead Breweries. Patrick Parent is Moosehead's vice president of operations and human resources and he is with us today to describe how his 150 year old company was impacted by the Catalyst Innovation Program and how its process helped to solve their energy sustainability problem. Check out this episode of the Boiling Point to see how the Catalyst Innovation Program could help you learn how to solve complex problems in your business.   In this episode Dave and Greg reflex on their time apart and with Monica Adair and Stephen Kopp. Dave announces the birth of his new baby. We are introduced to Mark Breen and Patrick Parent. Mark tells us where the idea of the Catalyst Innovation Program came from. Patrick tells us about the 150-year-old brewery and how the program helped Moosehead Breweries with their energy issues. We discuss the steps of the Catalyst Innovation Program and how the process allows you to think differently about tackling opportunities. Mark tells us why certain initiatives don't stick when consultants are brought in for a few weeks to look at an issue. We use Moosehead as a case study of how the program works.   Links - Enterprise Saint John Website - The Catalyst Innovation Program - Enterprise Saint John on Twitter - Enterprise Saint John on Facebook - Enterprise Saint John on Linked In - Mark Breen on Linked In - Moosehead Breweries Website - Moosehead on Facebook - Moosehead on Twitter - Moosehead on Instagram - Patrick on Linked In Learn more about your ad choices.
