1) Une exoplanète exposée à des vents incroyablement forts 33 000km/h, c'est la vitesse du vent sur la planète WASP-127b située à 500 années lumières de la Terre. C'est aussi le record de puissance d'un vent sur une planète. En comparaison, sur terre, le record a été enregistré en Australie avec 408km/h. La découverte de ce vent extrêmement fort sur cette planète lointaine a été réalisée grâce au Very Large telescope situé au Chili. Alexis Lavail, astrophysicien à l'institut de recherche en astrophysique et planétologie à Toulouse, nous éclaire sur le phénomène. Un sujet préparé par Bastien Confino. 2) L'odeur du Musée d'Art et d'Histoire Un musée a-t-il un parfum spécifique? Est-il possible de créer une odeur qui lui ressemble? C'est le défi que s'est lancé le Musée d'Art et d'Histoire à Genève et il a désormais sa propre signature olfactive. Une fragrance qui évoque notamment l'air vif de la bise ou les mystères du lac. Sarah Dirren recontre les différents protagonistes de cette belle aventure olfactive: Loic Bisceglie créateur de parfum chez DSM- Firmenich, senior Perfumer; Monica Sanchez directrice des évaluations parfum chez DSM- Firmenich; Romain Laneyrie, directeur principal du développement des affaires en innovation de dsm-firmenich; Isabelle Burkhalter responsable du secteur de la médiation culturelle au MAH. 3) Un livre pour expliquer les odeurs aux enfants Lorsquʹun éditeur dʹouvrages scientifiques se lance dans les livres pour enfants, cela donne "La petite boutique des odeurs", un petit livre joliment illustré et publié par Quanto Jeunesse. Une histoire poétique qui nʹoublie pas la science. Stéphane Délétroz reçoit Lucas Giossi, qui est à la fois lʹauteur et le directeur de la Fondation des presses polytechnique et universitaire romande.

Every living thing must solve an equation. How much nitrogen to eat, how much sodium, how much phosphorus, etc. The body solves that equation by taste and flavor -- by making living things crave what they need. Our appetites are linked to nutritional requirements. Taste: The Flavor of Life, a new docuseries on Curiosity Stream, explores the world of taste and how deliciousness unites us with the rest of animals in surprising ways.For example -- Organisms need salt for their cells to function properly. If a food has salt, the taste receptor sends a signal to the brain, creating pleasure. The umami taste receptor rewards animals for finding nitrogen, an element that's essential for building proteins and genes. Sweet taste receptors encourage animals to find foods with enough sugar to fuel their daily activity. Taste: The Flavor of Life traces the impact of taste from animals' first steps on land to top Michelin star restaurants!Taste: The Flavor of Life comes from biologist Rob Dunn and is inspired by his book Delicious – The Evolution of Flavor and How It Made Us Human (co-written by Monica Sanchez). A Professor at NC State University, Rob leads the Public Science Lab, a group of scholars from diverse disciplines who work to make new discoveries about daily life. His research has been awarded more than ten million dollars in grants from more than twelve different sources for work in 20 different countries. An avid writer, Rob has published many articles in National Geographic, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal among many others, as well as seven books including The Wild Life of Our Bodies and A Natural History of the Future.

With generous helpings of warmth and wit, Rob Dunn and Monica Sanchez offer bold new perspectives on why food is enjoyable and how the pursuit of delicious flavors has guided the course of human history.

This is part 2 of LUL's Latinas in Politics series and you’re in for a treat. Meet Dr. Monica Sanchez who shares her journey into politics with open vulnerability and tales of immense grit. Both a UC Berkeley and UC Los Angeles alumna, Dr. Sanchez shares what it takes to persevere. If you spend time thinking of all the reasons why you can’t do something, listen to Dr. Sanchez to understand how you always can. Less than 1% of Latinas earn PhD’s and Dr. Sanchez did it. Latinas are all too often underrepresented in high-power careers and Dr. Sanchez is at the table. Dr. Sanchez broke through the microaggressions and underrepresentation to become a City Council member in her respective city where a woman hadn't served in this capacity for 10+ years. She is still the only woman holding a seat even though her city is 50% female. She was a delegate for the Democratic Party and does it all as a single-mother and thriving Latina. Don’t miss this wonderful episode highlighting what it takes to stay the course in male-dominated careers and as a first-generation/teen mom. Thank you for your time and talent Dr. Sanchez. Your journey is admirable beyond measure.

In addition, they ask the question, “Why have things like scripture reading and prayer been non-negotiable aspects of Christian discipleship, while seeking justice seems optional at best?”

Episode 20: Monica Sanchez-Groeneweg (https://www.linkedin.com/in/monica-sanchez-groeneweg/) was born in Amsterdam to a Spanish father and Dutch mother. She attended the European School Bergen her entire life to preserve her language skills. She decided to attend LUC for its multicultural environment and multidisciplinary approach. After graduating in 2016 with BSc in International Development (GED) & minor in Psychology, she went on to study Political Sciences: Global Environmental Governance at the VU Amsterdam. As you will hear in the podcast she got sidetracked during these studies to pursue several work opportunities. While she doesn't recommend this order of work and studies, she learned a lot on the way. She hopes to graduate by the end of June and go traveling. This episode's motto: "What doesn't kill you helps with your masters."
