You might think of a star as a mass of incandescent gas, a gigantic nuclear furnace where hydrogen is turned into helium at a temperature of millions of degrees. But researchers recently reported that they'd observed some of what lies beneath all that hydrogen and helium, at least inside one unusual supernova. The star, named supernova 2021yfj, had its outer layers stripped away, leaving behind a silicon- and sulfur-rich inner shell.Astrophysicist Steve Schulze joins Host Flora Lichtman to describe what the team spotted in the heart of a dying star.Guest: Dr. Steve Schulze is a research associate at Northwestern University's Center for Interdisciplinary Exploration and Research in Astrophysics.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

Memory is the glue of life. Without it, our focus softens, our experience of the world blurs, and our identities melt away. But as people age, their memory declines. Many billions of dollars have been spent to understand the biological basis of dementia and to devise a cure. In most cases, they have failed spectacularly. But what if, rather than study the brains of people with advanced memory loss, we instead studied the brains of people with the opposite condition: extraordinary memory and brain health in old age? For the past few decades, Sandra Weintraub, a scientist at Northwestern University, has been part of a team studying the brains of "super-agers," people 80 and older who have the memory ability of people in their 50s. In a new paper published this year to considerable fanfare, she found that super-agers didn't have much in common. They didn't share a diet, or an exercise regimen, or a set of maladies or medications. One thing, however, united them: their social relationships. Today's guest is Sandra Weintraub. We talk about the science of memory and the brain and the protective benefit of social connection for our minds and ourselves.

We're resharing an episode from October 2022. How are habits – both good and bad – formed in the brain, and what role do habits play in diseases of the brain? These are some of the questions neuroscientist, Talia Lerner, PhD, is investigating in her lab. Her recent study, published in Cell Reports, may change the overall understanding of how habits are formed and could be broken.    Since this episode was first recorded in fall 2022, Lerner's team has published new research looking at sex differences. In a paper in Neuropsychopharmacology, her team discovered how novel sex-specific mechanisms control how stress hormones impact dopamine transmission and motivation.

On September 21, 1976, a car bomb exploded in Washington DC, killing a former Chilean diplomat named Orlando Letelier and his American colleague Ronni Moffitt. The assassination was a cruel and brazen attempt by the Chilean government to silence a critic of the Pinochet regime. And it proved to be a major strategic error––Pinochet himself used the language of “banana peel”––as the legal action that followed helped unravel US-Chile relations and provided a template for other human-rights victims to pursue justice in post-Pinochet Chile. Alan McPherson, a professor of history at Temple University, investigates this event in his new book Ghosts of Sheridan Circle: How a Washington Assassination Brought Pinochet's Terror State to Justice (University of North Carolina Press, 2019). With the perspicuous eye of a detective, McPherson puts all the pieces together to explain how Pinochet and his secret service organized the murder, before following Orlando Letelier's wife Isabel's decades-long struggle to hold the assassins and the Chilean government accountable. It's a harrowing but hopeful tale. And McPherson tells it masterfully. Dexter Fergie is a doctoral student in US and global history at Northwestern University. His research examines the history of ideas, infrastructure, and international organizations. Learn more about your ad choices.

The human brain tends to slow down as we age — even healthy brains shrink. That can make learning and memory harder as people age. But some people's brains shrink more slowly than their peers. This lucky group is called “SuperAgers.” They're people aged 80 or older. But they have the memory abilities of someone 50-to-60 years old. This week in the journal Alzheimer's & Dementia, researchers from Northwestern University's SuperAging Program summarized some of the secrets they've learned in the last 2.5 decades.  Want to hear about more stories about human health and aging?

As the United States secretary of health and human services, Robert F Kennedy Jr., announces a $500 million cut to mRNA vaccine research in the United States, we hear a statement from the Nobel Prize winning biologist who made mRNA vaccines possible. A team of scientists from Northwestern University have uncovered the pathway believed to protect some people from allergic reactions (even when they are sensitive to an allergen) and have tested a drug which could protect the most severely allergic. Also this week, satellite data shows that large parts of the Earth are running dangerously low on ground water. And although people often believe scientific fraud is committed by a few bad actors, a new paper uncovers networks of journals, editors, and authors who are allegedly cooperating to publish fraudulent papers.

Bree Groff's new book, Today Was Fun, pushes the reset button on expectations about work. There is no reason work can't be fun. About half of the things that make it un-fun are self-inflicted—we can just stop doing them. Take off the serious-people costume. Stop all performative work.

Have fun with work friends, and keep work in its place—a good part of life, but not your whole life.Bree Groff is a former partner at SYPartners and a transformation expert who helps organizations lead through change. With a background in systems thinking and behavioral science, she works at the intersection of strategy, leadership, and culture.In this episode, Bree and Dart discuss:- Why most transformation efforts fail- The role of rituals in driving behavior change- What leaders often get wrong about resistance- Why relationships matter more than strategy- How to build “cozy teams” and why that matters- Designing systems that reinforce cultural shifts- The emotional and ethical case for fun at work- Why professionalism often kills creativity- How to know if it's time to leave your job- What it means to “shoot straight with love”- What Bree means by putting “laughing” on your KPIs- And other topics…Bree Groff is a transformation expert who helps leaders and organizations navigate complex change.

It is rare that a journalist can speak to the growth of the WNBA not just from the perspective of coverage, but from its very conception.Christine Brennan began her career as a sports journalist by breaking barriers. After receiving her master's degree from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University, she became the first female sports reporter for the Miami Herald in 1981.While working for the Washington Post in 1985, she broke the NFL's gender barrier and began covering the Washington Football team—almost three decades before the franchise dropped its racially insensitive name and became the Commanders."There were moments when people did not want me around," Brennan recalls. "Even the coach, Joe Gibbs."Brennan says Gibbs did not believe a woman should be in the locker room. "This was '85 and the NFL was the last of the big leagues to have an equal access policy."Eventually, her professionalism turned the tide, even winning over Coach Gibbs—begrudgingly. Brennan recalls Gibbs saying, "I personally don't believe it's right, but I've been told we're doing it. So we will do it. She will be treated right, and that's the end of the conversation."Since then, Brennan has covered countless athletes and events, including Tiger Woods, Venus and Serena Williams, and multiple Olympic Games.While her comprehensive sports coverage is impressive, it is her reporting on the WNBA since its infancy that gives her a unique perspective on the league's evolution.She covered foundational players like Sheryl Swoopes and Cynthia Cooper as they helped establish the league as legitimate and highly competitive. Legends like Lisa Leslie, Maya Moore, and Candace Parker paved the way for today's stars like Napheesa Collier and A'ja Wilson, who have set the benchmark for excellence in the league.Yet without winning a single championship in college and without a single playoff appearance so far, the name most synonymous with the WNBA right now is Caitlin Clark.From her long-shot three-pointers to buzzer-beaters in college, Clark became a fan favorite. But she also became a flashpoint for racists and homophobic fans to share their ideals. Clark is the star who has ushered in sold-out arenas, lucrative TV deals, and higher endorsements across the league. A white player from middle America has walked into the house built by Black women and captured mainstream attention in unprecedented ways.In her new book "Her Game: Caitlin Clark and the Revolution in Women's Sports," Brennan asks poignant questions about race, recognition, and the complexities of the WNBA's newfound popularity.The central question she explores: If everything about Clark's game remained the same but she was Black, would she receive the same level of mainstream attention and endorsement opportunities?The resounding answer is no — but she sees this moment as growing pains for a promising WNBA future rather than an insurmountable problem.In this episode of the Jackie Rae Show, Brennan discusses her groundbreaking career, the role of race in sports coverage, and what the WNBA could have done better to protect its players during this period of explosive growth.

June Singer, PhD was a major figure in the development of the Jungian movement in the United States.  She earned a Ph.D. in Psychology from Northwestern University and completed training as a Jungian analyst in Zurich, Switzerland.  During the 1960′s, Dr. Singer founded the Analytical Psychology Club of Chicago, which eventually became the C.G. Jung Institute of Chicago, in order to provide interested individuals an opportunity to study the works of Carl Jung. June Singer was a gifted analyst and a distinguished author and lecturer.  Her text, Boundaries of the Soul, is considered to be one of the best introductions to Jungian thought.
