I interviewed 60 Brits to debunk one of psychology's greatest myths. Priming is one of the best-known biases in behavioural science. Kahneman mentions it 35 times in his best-selling book Thinking Fast and Slow. And yet, I'm not convinced it really works. In five separate experiments, I tested it. Does priming work, or is it a myth?  The studies:  Authenticity study: https://ibb.co/5W14DM2N Creativity study: https://ibb.co/FbxxNMDf Guilty study: https://ibb.co/XrTLXrY4 Anchoring + priming study: https://ibb.co/99LLw7G9 Reading time study: https://ibb.co/LDYc18yF ---  Subscribe to the (free) Nudge Newsletter: https://nudge.ck.page/profile Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew-22213187/ Watch Nudge on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nudgepodcast/ Learn more about Voxpopme: https://www.voxpopme.com/ ---  Sources:  Bargh, J.

Dans les terres abandonnées autour de Tchernobyl, là où la nature semble figée depuis la catastrophe de 1986, les scientifiques ont découvert un organisme hors du commun. Son nom : Cladosporium sphaerospermum, un champignon microscopique capable de prospérer dans l'un des environnements les plus hostiles de la planète.Ce qui intrigue les chercheurs ? Ce champignon se nourrit littéralement de radioactivité. Grâce à un processus étonnant, baptisé radiosynthèse, Cladosporium sphaerospermum capte les rayonnements ionisants, comme les rayons gamma, et les convertit en énergie chimique, un peu à la manière dont les plantes utilisent la lumière du soleil via la photosynthèse. La clé de ce mécanisme : la mélanine, un pigment qu'on retrouve aussi chez l'humain, et qui nous protège des rayons UV. Mais chez ce champignon, la mélanine va plus loin : elle absorbe la radioactivité et la transforme en carburant. Une aptitude documentée dès 2007 dans Plos One, puis confirmée en 2008 dans Nature.Et ce n'est pas tout : Cladosporium sphaerospermum a été envoyé dans l'espace, à bord de la Station spatiale internationale. Résultat ? Une croissance encore plus rapide dans cet environnement baigné de radiations cosmiques. De quoi faire rêver les ingénieurs de la NASA. Pourquoi un tel intérêt ? Ce champignon pourrait un jour dépolluer des sites radioactifs… ou même protéger les astronautes. Selon les calculs des chercheurs, une simple couche de 21 centimètres de ce champignon suffirait à bloquer les radiations martiennes. Une piste sérieuse pour les futures missions habitées vers Mars. Une découverte fascinante, à la frontière entre science-fiction et réalité. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

At an animal hospital in the Northeast United States, a biologist takes blood from a sick loggerhead sea turtle named Honey Bun. 在美国东北部的一家动物医院，一名生物学家从一只病态的Loggerhead海龟中取血，名为Honey Bun。 This is one of the first steps scientists must take before treating and rehabilitating the turtle so that it can be returned into the wild. 这是科学家在治疗和修复乌龟之前必须采取的第一步，以便它可以归还野外。 Cape Cod, in the state of Massachusetts, may have some of the largest numbers of turtle strandings in the world. 在马萨诸塞州，科德角（Cape Cod）可能拥有世界上最多的乌龟束缚。 The number of turtles that became trapped on Cape Cod beaches has risen over the past 10 years. That information comes from the Mass Audubon's Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary. 在过去的10年中，被困在鳕鱼角海滩上的海龟数量增加了。 这些信息来自大众奥杜邦的Wellfleet Bay野生动物保护区。 This year, volunteers found 829 turtles washed up on the sand. About half of them were dead, including some that were frozen solid. That number is nearly twice what workers found in 2016 and nearly 10 times more than 2008. 今年，志愿者发现829只乌龟在沙滩上冲洗掉。 其中大约一半死了，其中包括一些冷冻固体。 这个数字几乎是工人在2016年发现的两倍，是2008年的几乎10倍。 Some experts think the number of washed up turtles is related to climate change. 一些专家认为被冲洗的海龟的数量与气候变化有关。 A paper published in PLOS ONE notes that there were more strandings of Kemp's ridley sea turtles in years with warmer sea-surface temperatures. It added that of the threats to turtle populations, “climate change may present the broadest threat for sea turtle conservation.” PLOS在PLOS上发表的一篇论文指出，多年来，肯普的Ridley海龟的搁浅，海面温度更高。 它补充说，在对乌龟人群的威胁中，“气候变化可能对海龟保护构成最广泛的威胁”。 Over the past 10 years, many turtles have been moving north from the Gulf of Mexico into the warming waters of the Gulf of Maine. There, they feed on mussels, crabs and other sea creatures. 在过去的10年中，许多海龟从墨西哥湾向北移动到缅因州湾的温暖水域。 在那里，它们以贻贝，螃蟹和其他海洋生物为食。 Cape Cod extends into the Atlantic Ocean, serving as a kind of trap for turtles. When the waters cool there, the animals start to have health problems, like developing pneumonia. They have problems moving and eating. 科德角延伸到大西洋，是乌龟的陷阱。 当那里的水冷却时，动物开始存在健康问题，例如患肺炎。 他们在移动和饮食方面存在问题。 Bob Prescott is the director of Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary and helped to prepare the PLOS ONE paper. He notes that the sea turtles “know how to leave, but the Cape is like a trap – a hook within a hook.” 鲍勃·普雷斯科特（Bob Prescott）是Wellfleet Bay野生动物保护区的董事，并帮助准备了PLOS One论文。 他指出，海龟“知道如何离开，但斗篷就像一个陷阱 - 钩子里的钩子。” If the turtles survive, it can take months before they are fully recovered. Adam Kennedy is a biologist at New England Aquarium's sea turtle hospital in Quincy, Massachusetts. He says that when the turtles arrive at the hospital “they look like they are dead, especially in December.” 如果海龟生存，可能需要几个月的时间才能完全恢复。 亚当·肯尼迪（Adam Kennedy）是马萨诸塞州昆西的新英格兰水族馆海龟医院的生物学家。 他说，当海龟到达医院时，“它们看起来好像已经死了，尤其是在十二月。” Other experts argue that climate change alone cannot explain the increased number of turtle strandings. 其他专家认为，仅气候变化无法解释乌龟束缚的数量增加。Jeffrey Seminoff heads the Marine Turtle Ecology and Assessment Program at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Marine Fisheries Service. He believes that the high number of strandings “probably results from the simple fact that there's more turtles.” 杰弗里·塞诺夫（Jeffrey Seminoff）领导着国家海洋和大气管理局国家海洋渔业局的海龟生态和评估计划。 他认为，大量搁浅“可能是由于有更多海龟的简单事实而导致的。”Seminoff said that the recovery of the turtle population and “success of conservation efforts at the nesting beaches” could explain the higher number of turtle strandings. Seminoff说，乌龟种群的恢复和“筑巢海滩的保护工作的成功”可以解释乌龟的数量更高。 Kennedy, the biologist, said that he has mixed feelings when the turtles are released back into the wild. “It's bittersweet, because you spend so much time with them but ultimately every one of these guys getting back to the ocean helps the population.” 生物学家肯尼迪（Kennedy）说，当海龟被释放回野外时，他的感受也不同。 “这很苦乐参半，因为您花了很多时间与他们在一起，但最终，这些家伙回到海洋中的每个人都会帮助人口。” Recently, Honey Bun – the turtle we met at the beginning of our report – and other turtles were taken to Florida. They were released into the water. 最近，蜂蜜面包 - 我们在报告开头遇到的乌龟 - 其他海龟被带到佛罗里达。 他们被释放到水中。 Kelly Shaffer is with National Aquarium Baltimore, which worked with four other groups to organize the turtles' release. She noted that she feels a sense of “joy and accomplishment” at “being able to put them back out there.” 凯利·谢弗（Kelly Shaffer）与国家水族馆巴尔的摩（National Aquarium Baltimore）一起，该水族馆与其他四个团体合作组织了乌龟的释放。 她指出，她对“能够将它们放回那里”感到“喜悦和成就”感到“喜悦和成就”。

In this video, Dr. Ettensohn examines the growing claim that Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is almost entirely genetic, offering a critical, clinically grounded reflection on what the current science actually supports—and where it falls short. He discusses how genetic contributions to personality traits are often misunderstood, and why claims of “hardwired narcissism” oversimplify a profoundly complex developmental process. Drawing from empirical research, neurodevelopmental theory, and clinical observation, Dr. Ettensohn explores how narcissistic pathology emerges not simply from temperament, but from early relational experiences—especially chronic emotional neglect, inconsistent attunement, and conditional regard. He addresses how brain plasticity, diagnostic controversies, and the misunderstood vulnerable core of NPD further complicate the genetic narrative. This video offers a nuanced perspective for anyone seeking to understand NPD beyond reductive models, emphasizing the importance of relational context, developmental history, and psychological depth.

What do you get when a group of podiatrists team up with a Barbie doll collector? A research paper published in the journal PLOS ONE that looks into 65 years of Barbie history. The idea started when one of the authors was watching the 2023 Barbie movie. In it, there was a scene when Barbie steps out of her high heels and her feet flatten for the first time. For those of us who grew up with Barbie, we know that her feet used to be in a permanent tip-toe position. The researchers found a Barbie collector and analysed 2750 of their Barbie dolls from her debut in 1959 to June 2024 with a specific tool designed to measure foot posture of the doll. They found that over the decades Barbie has moved from a world of endless stilettos to one where flats are more common, especially when she's on a job. Just like many women today, Barbie now 'chooses' her shoes based on what she needs to do. If she's skateboarding, working as an astronaut, or heading to a medical shift, it's flats all the way. But when it's time to party, those heels come back out. In the 1960s, all Barbies stood on tip-toes, ready for a night out. But by the 2020s, only 40 percent of Barbies had that high-heel-ready posture. That change aligns with Barbie's expanding résumé. From being an astronaut in 1965 to a surgeon, Barbie has boldly entered fields once dominated by men. As women gained more workplace rights and opportunities, so did Barbie. In fact, by 2024, 33 percent of Barbies represent real-world jobs. And with that shift came new footwear more functional, more stable, and more diverse. The study found that Barbie's foot posture reflected more than just job roles. It mirrored broader changes in representation and inclusion. For example, Barbie dolls with prosthetic limbs wore flat shoes to reflect stability, but intriguingly, some dolls in wheelchairs still wore high heels, reminding us that fashion and function can coexist, and that breaking stereotypes isn't always about ditching glamour. The topic of high heels often comes with warnings - about bunions, knee pain, back problems. But here's the twist: these issues are also common in people who don't wear heels. And most research into high-heel risks involves people who rarely wear them or wear them during high-impact activities. There's a lot we don't know about the long-term effects of regularly wearing high heels. What we do know is this: they slow your walking pace and challenge your balance. But risk varies depending on heel height, shoe design, and individual lifestyle. Ultimately, Barbie reflects us. She's not just a plastic fashionista, she's a cultural mirror. Her shift from stilettos to flats isn't about turning her back on glamour. It's about making purposeful choices. Barbie wears heels when she's feeling fabulous, and sneakers when she's saving the world. And maybe that's the real message here: women can and do make thoughtful decisions about their footwear based on comfort, identity, and function.

Chimpanzees use medicinal plants for first aid and hygieneResearchers have observed wild chimpanzees seeking out particular plants, including ones known to have medicinal value, and using them to treat wounds on themselves and others. They also used plants to clean themselves after sex and defecation. Elodie Freymann from Oxford University lived with the chimpanzees in Uganda over eight months and published this research in the journal Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution.Why this evolutionary dead end makes understanding extinction even more difficult540 million years ago, there was an explosion of animal diversity called the Cambrian explosion, when nature experimented with, and winnowed many animal forms into just a few. A new discovery of one of the unlucky ones that didn't make it has deepened the mystery of why some went extinct, because despite its strangeness, it shows adaptations common to many of the survivors. Joseph Moysiuk, curator of paleontology and geology at the Manitoba Museum helped identify the fossil, and published on it in Royal Society Open Science A quantum computer demonstrates its worth by solving an impossible puzzleImagine taking a sudoku puzzle, handing bits of it to several people, putting them in separate rooms, and asking them to solve the puzzle. A quantum computer using the weird phenomenon of “entanglement” was able to do something analogous to this, which serves as evidence that it really is exploiting quantum strangeness, and could be used for more practical purposes. David Stephen, a physicist at the quantum computing company Quantinuum, and colleagues from the University of Boulder published on this finding in Physical Review Letters.Roadkill shows that most mammals have fluorescent furA researcher who used a range of mammal and marsupial animals killed by vehicles, has demonstrated that the fur of many of these animals exhibit biofluorescence – the ability to absorb light and re-emit it in different wavelengths. They were able to identify some of the fluorescent chemicals, but don't know why these animals would glow like this. Zoologist Linda Reinhold observed bright colours such as yellow, blue, green and pink on Australian animals like the bandicoot, wallaby, tree-kangaroo, possums and quolls. Their research was published in the journal PLOS One.Science suggests humans are not built for the information ageWe are living in the age of information. In fact, we're drowning in it. Modern technology has put vast amounts of information at our fingertips, and it turns out that science is showing that humans just aren't that good at processing all that data, making us vulnerable to bias, misinformation and manipulation.Producer Amanda Buckiewicz spoke to:Friedrich Götz, an Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of British Columbia.Vasileia Karasavva, a PhD student in the Department of Psychology at the University of British Columbia.Timothy Caulfield, professor in the Faculty of Law and the School of Public Health at the University of Alberta, and was the Canada Research Chair in Health Law and Policy from 2002 - 2023.Eugina Leung, an assistant professor of marketing at the A.B.

Let's unpack something most midlife women are totally missing – protein for Menopause Hormone Support. Are you feeling moody, low-energy, or constantly craving carbs in midlife? It might not just be your hormones—it could be your protein intake… and its effect on your hormones.  In today's episode, know how protein connects hormones and why your daily meals might be the hormonal tune-up you didn't know you needed. Cortisol & Protein: The Stress-Balance Dance Cortisol levels increase in response to low blood sugar or stress, which are common when meals are high-carb and low-protein. A high-protein diet blunts cortisol spikes post-meal and improves the body's stress response.   Insulin: Protein's Role in Glucose Control Protein stimulates insulin—but in a modulated way that helps with blood sugar stability, not spikes. In midlife and beyond, protein helps preserve insulin sensitivity, especially when combined with resistance training.   Ghrelin & Leptin: Protein vs. Cravings Ghrelin = your hunger hormone. Protein is the most effective macronutrient at suppressing ghrelin. Leptin = satiety hormone. Protein helps regulate leptin sensitivity over time. The Protein theory goes that if the body doesn't get enough protein it will message you it wants more. The problem is the message is not clear. It's just a hunger signal. You're left to figure it out or deal with the tempting cookies, cakes, and chocolate hidden in the icebox.    Estrogen: From Muscle Protector to MIA Estrogen is an anabolic hormone—it supports muscle maintenance, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic efficiency. As estrogen declines in perimenopause and menopause, its natural support of muscle protein synthesis (MPS) disappears. With estrogen no longer stimulating MPS, women must now rely on two primary tools to stimulate it: Resistance training Adequate high-quality protein (especially leucine-rich) “Estrogen enhances the anabolic response of skeletal muscle to both feeding and resistance exercise, and its loss results in anabolic resistance.”   More Truths About Protein for Menopause Hormone Support Muscle Protein Synthesis declines with age—and even more so without estrogen.  This is why RDA-level protein (0.8g/kg) is not sufficient in midlife - a statement agreed on by Registered Dietitians, longevity and geriatric experts alike.  Experts (ISSN) recommend ≥1.6–2.2g/kg of body weight for active women in midlife to maintain muscle, metabolism, and hormonal resilience.   The Anabolic vs. Catabolic Hormone Framework Anabolic Hormones = Build & Repair These are hormones that stimulate tissue growth and regeneration: Testosterone – promotes muscle growth, strength, libido Growth Hormone (GH) – supports repair, recovery, and fat metabolism Estrogen – helps preserve lean mass, regulates insulin sensitivity Insulin – can be anabolic by shuttling nutrients into cells, especially post-exercise Protein intake supports all of these by providing the amino acid building blocks needed for anabolic activity. Catabolic Hormones = Break DownThese are hormones that promote the breakdown of muscle, tissue, and energy stores: Cortisol – breaks down muscle for glucose during stress Epinephrine/Norepinephrine – mobilize energy in fight-or-flight Chronically elevated catabolic hormones + low protein = muscle loss, cravings, fatigue. Fat Storage Insulin isn't actually a catabolic hormone but it does increase fat storage. You can't be burning fat if insulin is high, as is true for many women. Focusing on boosting the anabolic hormones is the game-changer.    Other Episodes You Might Like: Previous Episode - Can We Just Stop the Self Sabotage to Feel Your Best Ever  Next Episode - How and Why to Consider Meditation in Menopause More Like This - Where Protein Recommendations for Women Come From?   Resources:  This episode is brought to you by Flipping 50 Longevity Pro Protein & Fiber, the simplest ingredient, cleanest, third-party-tested protein powder formulated specifically for midlife metabolism.

Il 90% delle persone che soffrono di disturbi alimentari sono donne, questo legame tra i DCA e il genere femminile non è solo una questione legata all'aspetto fisico ma riguarda anche le strutture di potere e le norme di genere. L'idealizzazione della magrezza nei media e l'associazione della bellezza con la perfezione fisica, giocano un ruolo fondamentale nell'influenzare lo sviluppo di questi disturbi.

Erstmals wird das Gewicht der Wälder unserer Erde vermessen - bis unters Blätterdach; das blühende Leben war einmal - junge Erwachsene sind nicht mehr so glücklich, wie die Jungen vor ihnen; Mensch und Erde gedeihen gemeinsam - das Konzept der "Planetary Health" untersucht die Zusammenhänge. (00:00) Schlagzeilen (00:49) Waldvermessung aus dem All: Die ESA hat diese Woche ihren Biomass-Satelliten in den Orbit geschossen. Erstmals soll das Gewicht der Wälder unserer Erde vermessen werden. Mit einer neuen Methode - einem Radar, das tief unter das Blätterdach blickt und Äste und Baumstämme bis zum Boden erfasst. Das hilft die Rolle der Wälder im globalen Kohlenstoffkreislauf besser zu verstehen und damit eins der letzten grossen Probleme der Klimaforschung zu verstehen (Angelika Kren) (07:30) Meldungen (Katharina Bochsler) Das blühende Leben: Jung und Alt geht's am besten. Im mittleren Alter dagegen happerts mit dem Glück. Das war einmal. Die U-Kurve des Wohlbefindens flacht nämlich ab. Neue Daten zeigen: Die jungen Erwachsenen sind längst nicht mehr so glücklich, wie sie's mal waren. Stress und die Schlaflosigkeit auf dem Land: Das Wohlergehen von Schweizer Bäuerinnen und Bauern ist schlechter als das der Allgemeinbevölkerung.

(14:09) Mensch und Erde gedeihen gemeinsam: Mit dem systemischen Konzept «Planetary Health» fassen Forschende den Zusammenhang von Gesundheit des Menschen und Zustand des Planeten zusammen. Der Klimawandel, Biodiversitätsverlust, neue Infektionskrankheiten oder Kriege treffen die Umwelt genauso wie die Menschen. Immer mehr Menschen ohne Vorbelastung erkranken beispielsweise an einem chronischen Nierenleiden: Zuckerrohr-Erntehelfer in El Salvador, Reisbauern und Salzarbeiter in Thailand, nepalesische Wanderarbeiter im Nahen Osten und Erntehelfer von Ägypten bis Kamerun. Schuld ist die Hitze, der sie bei ihrer Arbeit ausgesetzt sind. Über diese und andere Planetary Health-Phänomene haben Fachleute aus aller Welt im indischen Bangalore diskutiert.

Use code YDSAMPLE for a free snack pack from Skratch Labs!Support us on Patreon!Is organic food actually healthier—or just more expensive? This week on Your Diet Sucks, Zoë and Kylee break down the real science behind organic food, including what “organic” really means for produce, meat, and packaged snacks. We cover nutrition claims, pesticide exposure, antioxidant levels, and whether organic food impacts inflammation, gut health, or performance. We also dive into the environmental trade-offs of organic farming, the high cost of certification, and why that $19 strawberry feels morally superior. Plus: the truth behind the Dirty Dozen list, who really benefits from organic labels, and how to make food choices that work for your body and your budget.Big thanks to Microcosm Coaching for supporting the pod!

Two-thirds of those diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease are women — but why? In this episode, we unpack the neurological, hormonal, and social drivers that uniquely affect women's brain health during the menopausal transition — from estrogen's protective role in the brain to the misunderstood history of hormone replacement therapy. We discuss: • Why women face a higher risk of Alzheimer's than men • How menopause accelerates brain aging (and how it starts earlier than is often expected) • The role of estrogen in brain metabolism and neuroprotection • The real story behind hormone replacement therapy (HRT) • The impact of genes like APOE4 on women's brain health • How lifestyle factors like stress, sleep, and cognitive activity can help reduce the impact of neurological changes onset by menopause ——— Get our free curation of women's brain health resources in our Brain Box: http://thebraindocs.com/brainbox ——— To help us tell this story, we welcome three world-renowned women's health experts to the podcast: DR.

Parmi tous les sports que l'on peut pratiquer, le tennis ressort souvent comme l'un des plus bénéfiques pour la santé globale. Et ce n'est pas qu'une impression : plusieurs études scientifiques appuient cette idée.Prenons une étude marquante publiée en 2018 dans le British Journal of Sports Medicine. Menée dans le cadre de la Copenhagen City Heart Study, elle a suivi plus de 8 500 personnes pendant environ 25 ans, en comparant les effets de différents sports sur l'espérance de vie. Résultat : les joueurs réguliers de tennis vivent en moyenne 9,7 ans de plus que les personnes sédentaires. C'est plus que les nageurs (+3,4 ans), les coureurs (+3,2 ans) ou les cyclistes (+3,7 ans). Pourquoi un tel écart ? Parce que le tennis combine les bienfaits de l'activité physique intense avec ceux des interactions sociales. Or, la recherche montre que l'isolement social est un facteur de risque comparable au tabagisme ou à l'obésité.Sur le plan physiologique, le tennis fait appel à tout le corps. Il renforce le système cardiovasculaire en améliorant l'endurance et la capacité respiratoire. Lors d'un match, la fréquence cardiaque peut facilement atteindre 70 à 85 % de la fréquence maximale, ce qui correspond à une activité aérobique intense, excellente pour le cœur. Il stimule également les muscles, notamment ceux des jambes, des bras, du tronc et du dos, grâce aux mouvements de course, de frappe, de rotation et d'équilibre.Mais ce n'est pas tout. Le tennis améliore la coordination œil-main, la concentration, la rapidité de réaction et même la mémoire, notamment à travers l'anticipation et la stratégie de jeu. Ces aspects ont un effet protecteur sur les fonctions cognitives, en particulier chez les personnes âgées.Sur le plan mental, le tennis est aussi un excellent régulateur de stress. Une étude publiée dans PLoS One en 2020 a révélé que les sports de raquette, comme le tennis, étaient associés à une meilleure santé mentale que les sports individuels. Ils réduisent les symptômes d'anxiété, améliorent l'estime de soi et favorisent un meilleur sommeil.Enfin, le tennis est un sport qui peut se pratiquer à tout âge, avec des règles adaptables et une intensité modulable. Il offre ainsi une activité physique complète, durable et socialement engageante — autant d'éléments qui expliquent pourquoi, selon la science, le tennis est l'un des sports les plus sains au monde.

Listen in as Real Science Radio host Fred Williams and co-host Doug McBurney review and update some of Bob Enyart's legendary list of not so old things! From Darwin's Finches to opals forming in months to man's genetic diversity in 200 generations, to carbon 14 everywhere it's not supposed to be (including in diamonds and dinosaur bones!), scientific observations simply defy the claim that the earth is billions of years old. Real science demands the dismissal of the alleged million and billion year ages asserted by the ungodly and the foolish.     * Finches Adapt in 17 Years, Not 2.3 Million: Charles Darwin's finches are claimed to have taken 2,300,000 years to diversify from an initial species blown onto the Galapagos Islands. Yet individuals from a single finch species on a U.S. Bird Reservation in the Pacific were introduced to a group of small islands 300 miles away and in at most 17 years, like Darwin's finches, they had diversified their beaks, related muscles, and behavior to fill various ecological niches. Hear about this also at rsr.org/spetner.  * Finches Speciate in Two Generations vs Two Million Years for Darwin's Birds?  Darwin's finches on the Galapagos Islands are said to have diversified into 14 species over a period of two million years. But in 2017 the journal Science reported a newcomer to the Island which within two generations spawned a reproductively isolated new species. In another instance as documented by Lee Spetner, a hundred birds of the same finch species introduced to an island cluster a 1,000 kilometers from Galapagos diversified into species with the typical variations in beak sizes, etc. "If this diversification occurred in less than seventeen years," Dr. Spetner asks, "why did Darwin's Galapagos finches [as claimed by evolutionists] have to take two million years?" * Opals Can Form in "A Few Months" And Don't Need 100,000 Years: A leading authority on opals, Allan W. Eckert, observed that, "scientific papers and textbooks have told that the process of opal formation requires tens of thousands of years, perhaps hundreds of thousands... Not true." A 2011 peer-reviewed paper in a geology journal from Australia, where almost all the world's opal is found, reported on the: "new timetable for opal formation involving weeks to a few months and not the hundreds of thousands of years envisaged by the conventional weathering model." (And apparently, per a 2019 report from Entomology Today, opals can even form around insects!) More knowledgeable scientists resist the uncritical, group-think insistence on false super-slow formation rates (as also for manganese nodules, gold veins, stone, petroleum, canyons and gullies, and even guts, all below). Regarding opals, Darwinian bias led geologists to long ignore possible quick action, as from microbes, as a possible explanation for these mineraloids. For both in nature and in the lab, opals form rapidly, not even in 10,000 years, but in weeks. See this also from creationists by a geologist, a paleobiochemist, and a nuclear chemist. * Blue Eyes Originated Not So Long Ago: Not a million years ago, nor a hundred thousand years ago, but based on a peer-reviewed paper in Human Genetics, a press release at Science Daily reports that, "research shows that people with blue eyes have a single, common ancestor. A team at the University of Copenhagen have tracked down a genetic mutation which took place 6-10,000 years ago and is the cause of the eye color of all blue-eyed humans alive on the planet today." * Adding the Entire Universe to our List of Not So Old Things? Based on March 2019 findings from Hubble, Nobel laureate Adam Riess of the Space Telescope Science Institute and his co-authors in the Astrophysical Journal estimate that the universe is about a billion years younger than previously thought! Then in September 2019 in the journal Science, the age dropped precipitously to as low as 11.4 billion years! Of course, these measurements also further squeeze the canonical story of the big bang chronology with its many already existing problems including the insufficient time to "evolve" distant mature galaxies, galaxy clusters, superclusters, enormous black holes, filaments, bubbles, walls, and other superstructures. So, even though the latest estimates are still absurdly too old (Google: big bang predictions, and click on the #1 ranked article, or just go on over there to rsr.org/bb), regardless, we thought we'd plop the whole universe down on our List of Not So Old Things!   * After the Soft Tissue Discoveries, NOW Dino DNA: When a North Carolina State University paleontologist took the Tyrannosaurus Rex photos to the right of original biological material, that led to the 2016 discovery of dinosaur DNA, So far researchers have also recovered dinosaur blood vessels, collagen, osteocytes, hemoglobin, red blood cells, and various proteins. As of May 2018, twenty-six scientific journals, including Nature, Science, PNAS, PLoS One, Bone, and Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, have confirmed the discovery of biomaterial fossils from many dinosaurs! Organisms including T. Rex, hadrosaur, titanosaur, triceratops, Lufengosaur, mosasaur, and Archaeopteryx, and many others dated, allegedly, even hundreds of millions of years old, have yielded their endogenous, still-soft biological material. See the web's most complete listing of 100+ journal papers (screenshot, left) announcing these discoveries at bflist.rsr.org and see it in layman's terms at rsr.org/soft. * Rapid Stalactites, Stalagmites, Etc.: A construction worker in 1954 left a lemonade bottle in one of Australia's famous Jenolan Caves. By 2011 it had been naturally transformed into a stalagmite (below, right). Increasing scientific knowledge is arguing for rapid cave formation (see below, Nat'l Park Service shrinks Carlsbad Caverns formation estimates from 260M years, to 10M, to 2M, to it "depends"). Likewise, examples are growing of rapid formations with typical chemical make-up (see bottle, left) of classic stalactites and stalagmites including: - in Nat'l Geo the Carlsbad Caverns stalagmite that rapidly covered a bat - the tunnel stalagmites at Tennessee's Raccoon Mountain - hundreds of stalactites beneath the Lincoln Memorial - those near Gladfelter Hall at Philadelphia's Temple University (send photos to Bob@rsr.org) - hundreds of stalactites at Australia's zinc mine at Mt. Isa.   - and those beneath Melbourne's Shrine of Remembrance. * Most Human Mutations Arose in 200 Generations: From Adam until Real Science Radio, in only 200 generations! The journal Nature reports The Recent Origin of Most Human Protein-coding Variants. As summarized by geneticist co-author Joshua Akey, "Most of the mutations that we found arose in the last 200 generations or so" (the same number previously published by biblical creationists). Another 2012 paper, in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology (Eugenie Scott's own field) on High mitochondrial mutation rates, shows that one mitochondrial DNA mutation occurs every other generation, which, as creationists point out, indicates that mtEve would have lived about 200 generations ago. That's not so old! * National Geographic's Not-So-Old Hard-Rock Canyon at Mount St. Helens: As our List of Not So Old Things (this web page) reveals, by a kneejerk reaction evolutionary scientists assign ages of tens or hundreds of thousands of years (or at least just long enough to contradict Moses' chronology in Genesis.) However, with closer study, routinely, more and more old ages get revised downward to fit the world's growing scientific knowledge. So the trend is not that more information lengthens ages, but rather, as data replaces guesswork, ages tend to shrink until they are consistent with the young-earth biblical timeframe. Consistent with this observation, the May 2000 issue of National Geographic quotes the U.S. Forest Service's scientist at Mount St. Helens, Peter Frenzen, describing the canyon on the north side of the volcano. "You'd expect a hard-rock canyon to be thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years old. But this was cut in less than a decade." And as for the volcano itself, while again, the kneejerk reaction of old-earthers would be to claim that most geologic features are hundreds of thousands or millions of years old, the atheistic National Geographic magazine acknowledges from the evidence that Mount St. Helens, the volcanic mount, is only about 4,000 years old! See below and more at rsr.org/mount-st-helens. * Mount St. Helens Dome Ten Years Old not 1.7 Million: Geochron Laboratories of Cambridge, Mass., using potassium-argon and other radiometric techniques claims the rock sample they dated, from the volcano's dome, solidified somewhere between 340,000 and 2.8 million years ago. However photographic evidence and historical reports document the dome's formation during the 1980s, just ten years prior to the samples being collected. With the age of this rock known, radiometric dating therefore gets the age 99.99999% wrong. * Devils Hole Pupfish Isolated Not for 13,000 Years But for 100: Secular scientists default to knee-jerk, older-than-Bible-age dates. However, a tiny Mojave desert fish is having none of it. Rather than having been genetically isolated from other fish for 13,000 years (which would make this small school of fish older than the Earth itself), according to a paper in the journal Nature, actual measurements of mutation rates indicate that the genetic diversity of these Pupfish could have been generated in about 100 years, give or take a few. * Polystrates like Spines and Rare Schools of Fossilized Jellyfish: Previously, seven sedimentary layers in Wisconsin had been described as taking a million years to form. And because jellyfish have no skeleton, as Charles Darwin pointed out, it is rare to find them among fossils. But now, reported in the journal Geology, a school of jellyfish fossils have been found throughout those same seven layers. So, polystrate fossils that condense the time of strata deposition from eons to hours or months, include: - Jellyfish in central Wisconsin were not deposited and fossilized over a million years but during a single event quick enough to trap a whole school. (This fossil school, therefore, taken as a unit forms a polystrate fossil.) Examples are everywhere that falsify the claims of strata deposition over millions of years. - Countless trilobites buried in astounding three dimensionality around the world are meticulously recovered from limestone, much of which is claimed to have been deposited very slowly. Contrariwise, because these specimens were buried rapidly in quickly laid down sediments, they show no evidence of greater erosion on their upper parts as compared to their lower parts. - The delicacy of radiating spine polystrates, like tadpole and jellyfish fossils, especially clearly demonstrate the rapidity of such strata deposition. - A second school of jellyfish, even though they rarely fossilized, exists in another locale with jellyfish fossils in multiple layers, in Australia's Brockman Iron Formation, constraining there too the rate of strata deposition. By the way, jellyfish are an example of evolution's big squeeze. Like galaxies evolving too quickly,

Mental health information on social media can be both revelatory and misleading. How do clinicians and their patients make sense of it?TikTok and other social media sites are full of mental health content—often short, grabby, first-person videos detailing symptoms for conditions like ADHD and autism. But what does this mean for teens and young adults who spend hours a day scrolling?A new study published in PLOS One analyzes the 100 most viewed TikTok videos about ADHD to assess both how accurate they are and how young people respond to them. Researchers found that about half of the videos were inaccurate or missing key context, and that the more TikToks young adults watched, the less critical they were of the content.For some, watching social videos about mental health conditions led them to better understand themselves and eventually get a proper diagnosis and treatment. For others it made them consider if they have conditions they don't meet the diagnostic criteria for.Host Flora Lichtman talks with the lead author of the ADHD TikTok study, Vasileia Karasavva, a PhD Student in clinical psychology at the University of British Columbia; and Dr. Jennifer Katzenstein, director of psychology, neuropsychology, and social work at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg, Florida.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.

Ever diagnosed yourself with a mental health disorder based on a TikTok video? If so, you're not alone. "I personally don't think that there's anything more human than wanting to understand yourself and wanting to understand your own experiences," says Vasileia Karasavva. Vasileia is the lead author of a paper published Wednesday in the journal PLOS One that gets into why this kind of self-diagnosis can be such a double-edged sword.Listen to every episode of Short Wave sponsor-free and support our work at NPR by signing up for Short Wave+ at plus.npr.org/shortwave.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Big birds with bitty brains are still kind of brightWe've learned a lot about the remarkable intelligence of birds like crows and parrots, but not much work has been done on large flightless birds. A new study that explored the problem-solving abilities of emus, ostriches and rheas suggests that some of these birdy behemoths have impressive cognition too. In a first-of-its-kind study, a team led by University of Bristol's Fay Clark trained the birds to use puzzles to get food, and they found that the rheas and emus were able to solve the puzzle easily, though the ostriches did not. The research was published in the journal Scientific Reports.Cows jump over the moon — maybe humans should tooResearchers have done a lot of work to try and understand how astronauts can best prepare for and compensate for the muscle and bone atrophy that they will experience after long periods in zero G. A new study, led by Marco Chiaberge at Johns Hopkins University, suggests that a workout that includes jumping might be beneficial. The researchers found that by training mice to repeatedly jump up from one level to another increased their knee cartilage thickness by 26 per cent. The research was published in the journal npj Microgravity.Mary had a little lamb – 11,000 years agoSheep are among the animals that humans domesticated first, in the middle east during the dawn of agriculture. A new genetic study of hundreds of ancient sheep remains, which date across 12 millennia, is shedding light on the intertwined history of sheep and humans. The work, led by geneticist Dan Bradley of Trinity College Dublin, tells the story of how the sheep's domestication not only gave us clothes but also milk and meat which fueled our spread around the world for thousands of years, and how humans molded sheep by selecting them for colour and wool. The research was published in the journal Science.A tiny great ape lived in Europe 12 million years agoThe tiniest member of the great ape family — the group that today includes the chimpanzees, orangutans, bonobos, gorillas, and us — has been identified from fossils found in Germany. Nearly 12 million years ago, the 10-kilogram animal would have shared its environment with another, larger great ape species, something researchers didn't think was possible. David Begun, a paleoanthropologist at the University of Toronto, said its two fossilized teeth and a single knee bone indicated that Buronius manfredschmidi had its own ecological niche high up in the trees. The study was published in the journal PLOS One. The recipe for finding life on other planetsIn the last two decades we've discovered literally thousands of planets orbiting nearby stars. And our technology has advanced to the point where we're on the cusp of being able to investigate whether there's life on those planets. We speak to astrophysicist Lisa Kaltenegger, the founder of Cornell University's Carl Sagan Institute, about her work trying to answer that question, and her book Alien Earths: Planet Hunting in the Cosmos.

We are talking about our own work this week, focusing on our latest research into Europe's foremost colubrid, the Aesculapian snake. We chat about radio-tracking these beasts and dive into some of the media coverage this study has received. Finally, we touch on some good conservation news from the Zoological Society of London.

If you have a dog with fear, anxiety, or aggression issues, you've likely wondered—or, more likely, worried—whether your own personality traits are to blame for their unwanted behaviors.Understandably so. For years, dog owners have been fed messages like, “it's all how you raise them” and “there are no bad dogs, only bad owners.” Even experienced dog behavior professionals, who fully acknowledge the huge influence of biology and individual traits on dog behavior outcomes, are quick to affirm that stressy, anxious owners are far more likely to have anxious dogs.Listen to Co-Hosts Sarah Fraser and Brian Burton (both are Co-Founders of INSTINCT with a Master's in Animal Behavior) discuss this topic, including how the existing research and their experience with thousands of dogs and owners have shaped their thoughts and approach on whether anxious owners cause anxious dogs. Episode References:Ask, H., Eilertsen, E.

The guys return to Everglades National Park, again looking for a predator that Daniel wants to get too close to: the American Crocodile (Crocodylus acutus). Listen in as Daniel shares some research, busts croc-related myths, and Steve probably gets a little too excited about how crocs deal with salt water. Bill doesn't have much to say, but he's there, too. Enjoy!This episode was recorded on January 7, 2025 on the Bear Lake Trail in Everglades National Park. The last bit where the guys find the croc was also recorded in the Park, at the Flamingo Marina.Episode Notes and LinksAs promised during the episode, Steve is looking into how crocs process and excrete excess salt. As soon as he gets to the bottom of it, we'll share it here.In the meantime, here's what Bill found when he asked DeepSeek: Crocodiles, like many other marine and estuarine reptiles, have specialized salt glands to help them excrete excess salt from their bodies. These glands, known as salt glands or lingual glands (located on their tongues), actively transport salt ions (primarily sodium and chloride) from their bloodstream into the gland ducts. The salt is then excreted as a concentrated saline solution, which is expelled from the body.Crocodiles do not chemically change the salt (sodium chloride) into something else. Instead, they filter and concentrate it, allowing them to maintain proper electrolyte balance in their bodies, especially when living in saltwater environments. This process is crucial for osmoregulation, as it prevents dehydration and helps them survive in both freshwater and saltwater habitats.In summary, crocodiles excrete salt in its original form (sodium chloride) but in a highly concentrated solution, rather than transforming it into a different substance.Sponsors and Ways to Support UsGumleaf Boots, USA (free shipping for patrons)Thank you to Always Wandering Art (Website and Etsy Shop) for providing the artwork for many of our episodes.Support us on Patreon.Check out the Field Guides merch at our Teespring store.

How can cutting-edge air decontamination technology reshape healthcare and reduce infections? In today's episode of Tech Talks Daily, we explore this question with Dr. Deborah Birx, Chief Medical & Science Advisor at ActivePure Medical and former White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator, and Amy Carenza, Chief Commercial Officer at ActivePure. Together, they discuss how ActivePure's innovative technology is transforming air and surface purification in healthcare and beyond. ActivePure's advanced photohydrolysis technology, built on principles originally developed by NASA, replicates natural outdoor air purification indoors. Unlike traditional cleaning or filtration methods, this FDA-cleared Class II medical device offers continuous protection in occupied spaces, achieving remarkable results: a 96-99% reduction in MRSA and a 70% decrease in total healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). Dr. Birx and Amy explain how this breakthrough technology deactivates pathogens in real time, effectively filling the gaps left by manual cleaning processes. The conversation delves into the broader implications of ActivePure's solutions, from reducing hospital stays and improving healthcare outcomes to applications in food production, energy-efficient air management, and even residential use. Dr. Birx shares insights from recent studies, including findings published in PLOS ONE and the Journal of Infection Control, which highlight the technology's safety and efficacy. Meanwhile, Amy Carenza discusses how ActivePure is driving innovation to meet operational, quality, and sustainability goals across various industries. As we look to the future, the discussion touches on upcoming advancements in infection prevention, particularly for multi-drug resistant organisms, and the potential for ActivePure's technology to align with efforts to reduce chemical exposures and improve overall public health. How do you see air decontamination technology shaping healthcare and other industries? Join us for this fascinating discussion and share your thoughts!

Some optimistic and positive science news to end the year.For rats, anticipation of a pleasurable event is a pleasure in itself One day early in the pandemic, behavioural neuroscientist Kelly Lambert from the University of Richmond went to check on her rats. The rats responded with excitement when they saw her, anticipating the treats they were about to receive. That inspired her to pivot her research to study the effects that anticipating pleasurable experiences could have on the brain. She's found in research that has yet to be published, that building in anticipation periods before they get to do something they enjoy, increases, which, if her findings extend to humans, could help boost mental resiliency. Their previous work was published in Behavioural Brain Research. How Marine Protected Areas are improving tuna fisheriesA comprehensive study of province-sized marine protected areas in the tropical pacific has shown that they not only provide a refuge for fish, but improve tuna fisheries harvests in the areas outside their borders, making a win-win for conservation and industry. John Lynham, a professor of Economics at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, led the study which was published in the journal Science.For chimpanzees, play and the world plays with youA study of chimpanzees in Zambia has revealed that play and grooming are infectious behaviours. Animals who observe others performing these activities are more likely to groom and play themselves, which the researchers think promotes social cohesion in the troop. Zanna Clay, a professor of Psychology at Durham University, was part of the team, which published their research in the journal PLOS One.The oceans smallest plants and animals could help suck up excess atmospheric carbonResearchers may have discovered a new, fairly simple way to stimulate life in the ocean to capture and lock up atmospheric carbon. Phytoplankton absorbs and then releases 150 billion tons of atmospheric carbon every year. The researchers found that by adding just a little bit of clay to a phytoplankton bloom, this glues carbon particles together, creating “carbon snow” that falls down and is eaten by zooplankton, who then deposit it in the deep ocean. Mukul Sharma, a professor of Earth Sciences at Dartmouth College, says that in the lab this method locked up 90 per cent of the carbon that phytoplankton released. His study was published in the journal Nature Scientific Reports.A seal of approval: Unique elephant seal behaviour observed by a failed experimentA team of researchers developed a sophisticated deep-water experiment to observe and listen for sounds made by sablefish. They were startled when their study site was repeatedly visited by elephant seals, who would chase and chow down on the sablefish — all at 645 meters below the ocean's surface. This accidental observation was made in the Barkley Canyon Node, part of the Ocean Networks Canada (ONC) cabled video-observatory. It was the first time that elephant seals were studied in the deep ocean, giving unexpected and valuable new insights into seal resting and foraging behaviour. The findings were published in the journal PLOS One.Producer Amanda Buckiewicz spoke with Rodney Rountree, an independent biologist, ichthyologist, and adjunct marine biologist in the Department of Biology at Victoria University.And Héloïse Frouin-Mouy, an assistant scientist at the University of Miami's Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies, and affiliate at the University of Victoria.

Sitting is a big part of modern life. Many people work at a desk all day, have long commutes, or at least enjoy some time relaxing on the couch at the end of the day. But sitting has gained a reputation as being bad for us—with some going so far as to call it “the new smoking.”A recent study in the journal PLOS One sheds more light on just how much sitting is too much, using a cohort of more than 1,000 young adults, including 730 twins. The results showed that sitting for more than about eight and a half hours per day is linked to a higher total cholesterol and body mass index than sitting for less than that amount of time.But there's good news: 30 minutes of vigorous exercise per day may counter the negative effects that come from long days of sitting.Joining guest host Kathleen Davis to discuss the findings are two of the study authors: Dr. Chandra Reynolds, professor in the Institute of Behavioral Genetics at the University of Colorado, Boulder; and Ryan Bruellman, PhD candidate in genetics, genomics, and bioinformatics at the University of California, Riverside.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.

Having a better menopause experience alone ensures you increase longevity and your health span. Usually we talk about preserving muscle, reversing bone loss, and enhancing walking speed to do so. Today, it's a lot less sweat and breathlessness. but probably the hardest exercise I could ask you to do. Research shows that older individuals with more positive self-perceptions of aging, measured up to 23 years earlier, lived 7.5 years longer than those with less positive self-perceptions of aging. If you don't like what you see, change it. Change the people around you, change what you're doing or not doing. The research study consisted of 660 individuals aged 50 and older who participated in a community-based survey, the Ohio Longitudinal Study of Aging and Retirement (OLSAR). By matching the OLSAR to mortality data recently obtained from the National Death Index, the authors were able to conduct survival analyses. The findings suggest that the self-perceptions of stigmatized groups can influence longevity. If perceptions about aging are formed by the age of 6, you might want to consider that we've likely contributed to our children's and grandchildren's early death or improved longevity, one or the other. You and I have either helped them live longer stronger or believe the little things we've said, and I quote from people and potentially myself having said this: “I'm getting old,” which we don't usually say with a positive spin. This is most likely first said often at age 25 or at 30 when you have at least ⅔ or ¾ of your life left to live. “It's hell getting old.” -said at any age “Just you wait.” -said to younger women about trying to get or stay fit “Grandma is old, honey, you have to be careful.” “There's nothing good about it.” -in reference to getting old “So, that's when it happens/when things start falling apart.” “I am my mother.” But, how important are these offhanded, casual, lighthearted comments really? Increase Longevity Through Growth and a Positive Outlook A 2018 Plus One study found that the chances of dementia can be lowered by 49.8% if a positive outlook is maintained. Who do you surround yourself with? What are your own thoughts? Do you think about yourself in 20, 30 or 40 years? What do you see? How does it feel? What are you doing and who are you doing it with? Physical exercise and nutrition are the two most important of the tangible things you can do. Your mindset, however, is number one. Yes, you should move every day and we eat every day. We think 60-70,000 thoughts a day and 90% of those are the same as yesterday. We continue living the same pattern and change becomes hard. While preparing for a class reunion, I looked through old yearbooks filled with messages like, “keep being you” or “don't forget who you are when you go to…. [university].” In reality, we didn't intentionally do it, but that advice is some of the worst we could have given each other. “Keep changing and evolving, growing and becoming” would have been wise beyond our years but even teachers didn't write things like that. Increase Longevity With a Youthful Mindset Dr Ellen Langer, the Mother of Mindfulness, tells us that we will stay stuck getting the same results, changing very little, if those habits aren't changing WHO we are. Unless your best habit is to break habits that keep you doing and repeating thoughts that aren't getting you results, you'll continue on the path you're on now. Virtually, you won't change much. The reframing of anything is possible. You've probably done it. For instance, you may have had to run in high school for punishment if you lost or you made mistakes or talked too much in class. Running then was bad. As an adult you may have come to love running maybe because someone you loved or envied did it and seemed to enjoy it. Not eating for a long period of time seemed so difficult, it was like dieting, which has a negative connotation stemming from deprivation. But today we know not eating between meals and going 12 hours between dinner and breakfast without calories is positive, and that some often go 16 or more hours without consuming calories and call it intermittent fasting. So when I go in for a fasting blood test and all that means is I haven't eating after dinner and it's 7:30 and they ask if I'm fasting or the phlebotomist asks what I'm going to eat first, as if I must be starving, I'm always a bit surprised they refer to it as a hardship not to have eaten for 11 hours, while I was sleeping most of the time. A reframe, right? Dr Ellen Langer's well-known Counterclockwise study (there's a book by the same title) with older adults asked to pretend “as if” they were their younger selves for a short time. They were exposed only to music, periodicals, movies of the time they were younger and by the end of the week older adults who arrived using canes, moving slowly, could hear better, see better, were playing touch football. Simply by changing their thoughts about aging.

Author and naturalist Sy Montgomery discusses chicken intelligence and her experience raising a flock in New Hampshire. And, snapshots from over the years could provide researchers with valuable data about how penguin colonies have shifted.Chickens Have Friendships, Memories, And ReputationsChickens don't exactly have a reputation of being the sharpest creatures in the animal kingdom. Yet, talk to anyone who raises chickens and they'll tell you that they are far more intelligent and social than we often give them credit for. For example, chickens can recognize the faces of 100 other chickens and find their way home just days after birth.Guest host Rachel Feltman talks with Sy Montgomery, author of the new book, What the Chicken Knows: A New Appreciation of the World's Most Familiar Bird, about her own flock and what she's learned about chicken intelligence.Tourist Photos From Antarctica May Help Map Penguin ColoniesIf you're lucky enough to visit Antarctica, you'll probably aim to snag a classic photo—a colony of penguins, set against the chilly, barren landscape. But now, in addition to being a cherished memory, those pictures could turn out to be a valuable source of ecological data.Writing in the journal PLOS One, researchers describe a computer vision technique that uses elevation data combined with landscape features in photographs to allow the images to be positioned in a 3D rendering of the Antarctic landscape. And that allows scientists to map the precise boundaries of penguin colonies over time, even without knowing who held the camera or where the photographer was standing.Dr. Heather Lynch, the Institute for Advanced Computational Science Endowed Professor of Ecology & Evolution at Stony Brook University, joins guest host Rachel Feltman to discuss the technique, and the value in being able to extract scientific data from pictures stored in photo albums and museum archives.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
