Alfred Nobel made a fortune inventing things that go boom, earning the nickname “merchant of death.” But with his own death approaching, he set out to salvage his legacy by creating a prize meant to celebrate peace, science, and human progress. The history of that prize, however, is anything but peaceful. This week, Shane and Duncan explore the strange evolution of the Nobel Prize, from its explosive beginnings to secret refusals, scandalous recipients, and one prize Nobel never actually intended. ~ Support the show by becoming a Midnight Minion, Menace, or Maniac, and unlock exclusive bonus content over at PATREON ~ Chat with fellow insomniacs and vote on episode topics via DISCORD ~ Join the Midnight Masses!

Proteins are crucial for life. They're made of amino acids that “fold” into millions of different shapes. And depending on their structure, they do radically different things in our cells. For a long time, predicting those shapes for research was considered a grand biological challenge.But in 2020, Google's AI lab DeepMind released Alphafold, a tool that was able to accurately predict many of the structures necessary for understanding biological mechanisms in a matter of minutes. In 2024, the Alphafold team was awarded a Nobel Prize in chemistry for the advance.Five years later after its release, Host Ira Flatow checks in on the state of that tech and how it's being used in health research with John Jumper, one of the lead scientists responsible for developing Alphafold.Guest: John Jumper, scientist at Google Deepmind and co-recipient of the 2024 Nobel Prize in chemistry.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

What happens when a government abruptly cuts off the lifeline of pure science? Imagine canceling Albert Einstein just before he published [E = mc². Terence Tao, the “Mozart of Mathematics,” was one of the unlucky researchers hit when the Trump administration suddenly terminated his federal research funding. Today, I walk and talk with Tao at UCLA to understand how America's greatest living mathematician found himself blindsided by a bureaucratic earthquake — and what it means for the future of discovery. This is Part 1 of our deep dive into Tao's work, his warnings about the collapse of U.S. research infrastructure, and why mathematics is the unseen root system supporting all of modern technology.

Subscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@LiveHolPlus/Cardiovascular disease is still the number one killer, yet guidelines keep pushing cholesterol lower and more people are put on statins for life. In this hol+ episode, Dr. Taz sits down with worlds leading nitric oxide researcher Dr. Nathan S. Bryan to ask hard questions about statin risk versus benefit, why cholesterol alone does not explain heart disease, and what is nitric oxide actually doing inside the body long before a heart attack or stroke. Together, they explore why low or no nitric oxide may be the missing piece behind rising blood pressure, plaque, and dementia, even in people who “follow the rules.”From the benefits of nitric oxide for blood flow, blood pressure, diabetes, and brain health to the surprising impact of antiseptic mouthwash and antacid medications, this conversation reframes cardiovascular and metabolic disease as problems of cell signaling, not just lab numbers. You will learn what nitric oxide is, what does nitric oxide do for the body, why nitric oxide importance is often ignored in standard care, and how to raise nitric oxide through lifestyle, targeted support, and emerging restorative therapies based on decades of nitric oxide research.Dr. Taz and Dr. Bryan discuss:New cholesterol guidelines, statins, and rethinking risk vs benefitWhat is nitric oxide and what does nitric oxide do for the bodyWhy low or no nitric oxide shows up decades before heart attacks and strokeThe benefits of nitric oxide for blood flow, blood pressure, and sexual functionNitric oxide diabetes link and why insulin resistance is often a nitric oxide problemMouthwash and nitric oxide, antacids, fluoride, and the oral microbiomeHow lifestyle, diet, movement, and nasal breathing raise nitric oxide naturallyWhy standard biomarkers are late and vascular function should be tested soonerNitric oxide importance in Alzheimer's, dementia, and brain blood flowHow to raise nitric oxide safely and what to know about supplements vs “dead beets”About Dr. Nathan S. Bryan Dr. Nathan S. Bryan is a pioneering nitric oxide researcher, molecular medicine scientist, and biotech entrepreneur whose discoveries helped create a billion dollar nitric oxide market. His work has reshaped how we understand cardiovascular disease, metabolic health, nitric oxide diabetes links, and how lifestyle, mouthwash and nitric oxide, and common drugs impact long term health. He is the author of The Secret of Nitric Oxide, where he breaks down what nitric oxide is, what nitric oxide does for the body, and how to raise nitric oxide safely at home using science based tools and lifestyle shifts.

What if aging wasn't something that just happens to us, but something we could actively influence at the cellular level? In this eye-opening episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi sits down with Chris Burres, co-founder of MyVitalC, to explore the breakthrough science behind ESS-60, a powerful molecule that may help slow aging and boost mitochondrial energy. Chris shares the fascinating story of how this compound came out of Nobel Prize-winning research and how it is now changing lives with improvements in sleep, inflammation, energy, brain clarity, and overall vitality. Together, Ben and Chris break down the research behind oxidative stress, HRV, inflammation markers like HS-CRP, and the surprising week-by-week results users are experiencing. This conversation is a deep dive into longevity science, metabolic resilience, and what is possible when we support our mitochondria — the tiny engines fueling every cell in the body. You will walk away inspired to rethink what aging means, support your body at the cellular level, and take steps toward living younger, longer.

Nobel Prize-winning economist Esther Duflo brings her data-driven precision to the climate crisis — and the numbers are damning. While world leaders haggle over finances at endless summits, rising temperatures will kill millions in the poorest countries by the end of this century. She calculates the staggering cost of wealthy nations pumping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, proving that getting billionaires to pay their fair share in taxes is the best way to cover these damages.

Confronting the universal internal battle against "resistance" - the invisible force of procrastination, fear, and self-doubt that stops us from doing our most important work - McKay draws upon the powerful distinction between an "amateur" and a "pro” to argue that we can consciously decide to adopt a professional mindset in any area of our lives. This decision, he notes, is not about a title or a paycheck; it's an act of will that transforms our approach to challenges, failures, and our ultimate potential.Opening the episode with the core lesson from Steven Pressfield's book The War of Art - the hardest part of any task is simply starting - McKay then illustrates the professional mindset through a series of compelling stories. Listeners hear about Kobe Bryant's legendary work ethic that reset the culture of the 2012 US Olympic basketball team; Captain Tammie Jo Shults' incredible composure while landing a crippled Southwest jet; and astrophysicist Jocelyn Bell Burnell's steadfast focus on her work, even after being overlooked for a Nobel Prize. The episode culminates with the idea that, like the Apostle Peter, even when we fail, we can "decide again" to be a pro, recommitting to our purpose with even greater strength.Main Themes:The greatest obstacle to achieving our goals is an internal force called "resistance," which manifests as procrastination and fear.An amateur works when they feel inspired, but a professional does the work regardless of their mood, the circumstances, or their fear."Turning pro" is a conscious decision - an act of will to show up and do the work, especially when it's hard.True professionals don't dwell on mistakes; they learn from them and immediately focus on the "next play."A pro is defined by their commitment to their purpose, not by external validation, credit, or praise.Even after a setback, you can always choose to recommit and be "twice born" into your professional mindset, emerging stronger than before.Top 10 Quotes:“It's not the writing part that's hard. What's hard is the sitting down to write. What keeps us from sitting down is resistance.”“That's the price for being in the arena and not on the sidelines. Stop complaining and be grateful.”“Pros do the work regardless of how they feel.”“You can't win the next play by thinking about the last one.”“We make up our minds to view ourselves as pros and we do it. Simple as that.”“Pros don't get overly excited, emotional, or moved off their professional approach.”“Every day that you sit around trying to figure out what to do, someone else is already doing it.”“This time, having decided twice, he is stronger than ever.”“You can choose to be a pro again.”Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

"Godfather of AI" Professor Geoffrey Hinton won a Nobel Prize for his early work on machine learning which were the foundations for modern Artificial Intelligence today.

In this extended conversation, Loeb responds directly to recent public criticism from Brian Cox, Jason Wright, and others, clarifies what the data actually show, and explains why humility and open inquiry remain essential to the scientific method. The latest images of the interstellar object show a single intact body, a sunward jet, and energy requirements that challenge familiar comet models. These anomalies have ignited one of the most heated scientific debates of the decade. We explore the latest observations since 3I/ATLAS' October 29 perihelion: • Why its jets, brightness, and spectral changes are so unusualt • What would distinguish natural sublimation from technological propulsiont • How its orbit, size, and mass budget challenge standard modelst • Why the public response matters for the future of sciencet • How criticism of scientific inquiry mirrors the historical treatment of Galileot Follow Avi's latest findings and discoveries here https://avi-loeb.medium.com/3i-atlas-is-still-a-single-body-with-a-sunward-anti-tail-after-perihelion-667fe41c0071 In this livestream, Avi will address: • Why the post-perihelion images complicate the natural-comet interpretationt • Whether a technological origin is still on the tablet • Why critics insist the anomalies are trivial — and why Avi argues they're nott • How scientific consensus forms, breaks, and evolves under stresst • What the new mass-flux and energy calculations imply for 3I/ATLASt We'll explore the science, the skepticism, and the stakes — and we'll take live audience questions from channel members.

Comedian Julia Scotti joins Ophira Eisenberg to talk about the long, winding path that brought her back to stand-up after transitioning and a decade away from comedy. Julia reflects on raising three children amid multiple marriages and constant touring, her fear of repeating her own fractured childhood, and the painful 14-year estrangement from her kids after she came out as transgender. She recalls coming out mid-set at a blue-collar Pennsylvania club and later to 13 million people on America's Got Talent, joking that she wanted to be judged “on the act, not the anatomy.” Julia also describes how teaching special education students during that period filled the hole left by her kids' absence—including a harrowing day during 9/11 when she nearly took her own life. The conversation touches on old stand-up footage where she mocked trans people before understanding her identity, her love of Louis Prima singalongs with her son, and the two corny jokes she first told him from his crib. The episode ends on a warm note as Julia admits she “unleashed the Kraken” by raising another comedy lover.

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 joins Host Flora Lichtman to talk about his research, the odd jobs he worked along the way, and how he found a sense of belonging in science.Guest: Dr. Ardem Patapoutian is a professor and the Presidential Endowed Chair in Neurobiology at the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California. Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

In the early 20th century, scientists discovered a mysterious new type of radiation. The higher they went, the stronger it became. They realized that it came from beyond Earth. And 100 years ago tomorrow, it got a name: cosmic rays. Nobel Prize winner Robert Millikan had become fascinated by the rays from outer space in the early ’20s. He coined the name “cosmic rays” in a paper about them, which he presented to a meeting on November 9th, 1925. Millikan thought the rays were a form of energy produced by matter that was being born in the space between the stars. Others disagreed, especially Arthur Compton – a future Nobel Prize winner himself. He argued they were subatomic particles racing through the universe at almost the speed of light. Compton was right. Cosmic rays are electrons, protons, or the nuclei of atoms. Most of the ones that hit Earth are produced by the Sun. But others come from far beyond our own solar system – and even from beyond our galaxy. The most energetic ones come from exploding stars, or from the violent regions around black holes. Most of these distant cosmic rays are blocked by the Sun or by Earth’s magnetic field. But a few enter the atmosphere. They strike atoms and molecules in the air, creating “showers” of other particles. If a shower occurs above the right kind of clouds, it can create lightning – a terrestrial light show with an extra-terrestrial origin. Script by Damond Benningfield

Get my book Focus Like a Nobel Prize Winner: https://www.amazon.com/Into-Impossible-Laureates-Concentrate-Creativity/dp/1544548850 Imagine the day that aliens arrive not with a death ray, but with a rug and a new understanding of physics. Daniel Whiteson's new book opens with a wild question what if aliens show up with a better understanding of physics, we can't even recognize that's what they're offering. How would you react? This is his hope that aliens might carry the product of millions, billions, or kazillions of years of alien scientific thought that would catapult us unimaginably into the future. But Daniel speculates on why we might not be able to understand even the language it's written in. Join us today for a conversation about Daniel Whiteson's new book, Do Aliens Speak Physics?

As we move into the end of the year, I'm excited to return to our recurring series “What's New in Science” with my co-host Sabine Hossenfelder. In this month's episode, we started by tackling a favorite subject: scientific hype. Sabine kicked things off by dissecting a recent, highly suspect press release claiming a million-qubit quantum computer is on the horizon. I then brought up a National Geographic article claiming that “warp drive is speeding closer to reality” , and we discussed the reasons why it actually isn't, including the need for “negative energy,” that keep it firmly in the realm of science fiction.From there, Sabine steered us into the world of academic accolades, discussing the controversy around last year's Nobel Prize in Physics for work on neural networks and the collaborative nature of science. I then introduced this year's prize, which was awarded for the beautiful and precise experimental work on seemingly macroscopic manifestations of quantum mechanics—specifically, showing a superconducting quantum state can “tunnel” through a barrier.Finally, we turned to cosmic mysteries. Sabine presented a report on search for “Dark Stars,” a theory that the first stars might have been powered by dark matter annihilation , which require some wishful thinking and what I think are not particularly well motivated physics. For full disclosure this is an issue I thought about in a slightly different context almost 40 years ago and have some a priori skepticism about. I closed with a much more plausible bit of exotic physics that may have been observed: new observations of long-lived gamma-ray bursts. A new model suggests these are caused by a black hole that has merged with a star and is consuming it from the inside out. From wild hype to implausible and plausible models to Nobel-winning physics, I hope you enjoy the conversation.As always, an ad-free video version of this podcast is also available to paid Critical Mass subscribers.

Economists like to model people as rational creatures who make self-interested decisions. But humans don't act that way. Why do investors, politicians and ordinary people act against their best interests – and how can they be nudged into making better decisions? To find out, FT economics commentator Chris Giles speaks to Richard Thaler, the founding father of behavioural economics. Thaler is a professor at the University of Chicago who won the 2017 Nobel Prize in Economics for his work on how humans make (often irrational) decisions.On November 28, the FT will be holding a live webinar on what the UK Budget will mean for your money.

Translator Ottilie Mulzet joins co-hosts Whitney Terrell and V.V. Ganeshananthan to talk about her award-winning translations of Nobel Prize winner László Krasznahorkai's work. Mulzet, who was born in Canada and now lives in the Czech Republic, discusses how she learned Hungarian and began working with Krasznahorkai. She explains the humor in his novels and how his background in music shapes his prose. Mulzet also reflects on the timeliness of his writing and the breadth of his influences, including Europe and Asia more broadly. She considers its political context, including the Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orbán's recent Kulturkampf, or efforts to control Hungarian cultural production. Mulzet reads an excerpt from Herscht 07769, which takes its title from the protagonist's decision to write German Chancellor Angela Merkel a letter using only his name and postcode as a return address.

How do human choices, biases, and behaviours shape our economy? This week Amol speaks to Nobel Prize winning behavioural economist Professor Richard Thaler about his theories that dive into the patterns behind our decision-making and reveal why humans aren't always as rational as we like to think. From overconfidence and the lure of winning at any cost, to the hidden costs of risk-taking and the psychology of incentives, his research shows why individuals and markets sometimes make surprising — or even seemingly irrational — choices. By unpacking the experiments described in his book The Winner's Curse we get an insight into his work and he applies these behavioural insights to the issues facing the UK today. They discuss how to get young people off welfare and into work, government debt and why Richard believes the winter fuel allowance needs a rethink.

Malala Yousafzai (Finding My Way, I Am Malala, He Named Me Malala) is an education activist, Nobel Prize laureate, and author. Malala joins the Armchair Expert to discuss having a relatively normal life until a militant organization took over her valley in Pakistan, becoming an activist simply to respond to her new oppressive reality, and how lucky she was to have a male ally in her father. Malala and Dax talk about feeling like a fish out of water in a new school after her attack, winning the Nobel Peace Prize at 17 years old, and not being a good student at Oxford because she was more interested in a social life. Malala explains the go-cart meet cute with her now-husband, why girls' education is the solution to so many world problems including climate change, and coming to the understanding that true bravery is when you go through lows and still stand up for what you believe in.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

You might think you know about Malala. But you'd be wrong. For so many years, she stood as a symbol of resistance: the teenage girl who was shot by the Taliban for insisting on the right to go to school and who later won the Nobel Prize at 17 for her efforts to make education available for everyone. But there was another story that existed behind the headlines: the story of a young woman who was only just understanding who she was. Now 28, Malala has published a new book, Finding My Way which describes some of that extraordinary journey. In this episode we discuss her panic attack after smoking a bong at Oxford (and how this retriggered undiagnosed PTSD), what friendship taught her, her views on marriage and how they've changed, as well as the sadness she carries for Afghanistan and all the women who are denied an education around the world. Plus: how she fell in love with a hot cricketer. This is such a powerful conversation and Malala is also funny, warm and incredibly wise. You will laugh. You might cry. But whatever happens, you'll emerge with a new perspective on life. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 01:27 Recovery and Continued Education 05:12 College Life and First Experiences 07:03 Mental Health and Panic Attack 11:09 Academic Struggles and Social Life 17:48 Reflections on Friendship and Cultural Pressures 26:02 Reflecting on Nasin's (her cousin's) Struggles 27:49 Reflections on Life Choices 30:14 Marriage: A Journey of Doubts and Discoveries 31:47 Redefining Marriage Norms 34:36 Contemplating Motherhood 37:04 The Fall of Afghanistan to the Taliban 44:27 Global Crises and Personal Reflections

Send us a textThousands of years before modern science emerged, the ancient science of Ayurveda propagated this prescient knowledge of the body's cellular anatomy, its recalibration and maintenance as the imperative to maintaining excellent health. In Ayurveda, the principle of autophagy is only one core part of a greater plethora of cellular function of the cellular anatomy, which in Sanskrit is referred to Śarīra Paramānus/Anu Srotāmsi, a vast invisible network of living units of the body analogous to modern cells. Today, science is progressively proving what the ancient rishis knew. Thanks to Yoshinori Oshumi cellular recycling now has a modern scientific name. Ohsumi, a brilliant biologist in Tokyo won the Nobel Prize in 2016 for “discovering” autophagy” the process where cells break down and recycle their own damaged components to survive and stay healthy. Ohsumi's work and findings are outstanding, and open the door to greater scientific knowledge of the cellular anatomy. Autophagy is a natural function of cell recycling, the process in which cells degrade and  recycle cellular components by breaking down and reusing damaged or unnecessary components within a cell. Autophagy is essential for a cell to function and to manifest the energy that it needs. Fully functional cells help us survive during periods of physical, emotional and spiritual stress. It can destroy pathogens like viruses and bacteria that have entered a cell. Cells are the basic building blocks of every tissue and organ in your body. Each cell contains multiple parts that keep it functioning. Over time, these parts can become defective or stop working. By deconstructing old parts of their cells they don't need, cells can recreate these junky bits into functioning cells they need to survive. Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com Get Maya's New Book: I Am Shakti: https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/o-books/our-books/I-am-shakti Amazon.com Bookshop.org

There's so much incredible research and work that happens every day at UC Berkeley, on everything from artificial intelligence and quantum computing to linguistics and the study of social justice. It holds the record for the most Nobel Prize winners among any public university in the world, with two wins just this year.This work can be highly theoretical and technical, taking decades to fully develop. Yet its impact extends far beyond academia, leading to world-changing results, from the invention of CRISPR gene editing that has saved lives to ethnic studies courses that foster a stronger sense of identity and critical consciousness. Within these broad impacts are millions of stories of how Berkeley's research has transformed society. In this season of Berkeley Voices, we hear two sides of a story — from Berkeley scholars working on life-changing research, and from the people who've been changed by it.New episodes will come out on the first Thursday of each month, from November through April.

We know Malala as the youngest Nobel Prize laureate, the girl who survived a Taliban bullet at 15 for advocating for girls' education in Pakistan. Now in a new book, she's reintroducing herself to the world. It's called Finding My Way, and in it she writes about the messy, funny, and flawed experiences that come with age, while carrying both the honor and the weight of being an activist for women's rights. TV critic David Bianculli reviews a new documentary series about Martin Scorsese. And Ken Burns talks about his new PBS documentary on the Revolutionary War. It includes the perspectives of women, Native Americans, and enslaved and free Black people–the people initially excluded from the declaration “all men are created equal.” Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
