GUEST: Clemens C.W.G. Lowik, RotterdamIn this episode we discuss and learn about Bioluminescence Imaging and modern tools for multiplexed imaging of different colors, tackling a major challenge of the field. Our guest is one of the founding fathers of the ESMI and pioneers on multicolor BLI, the one and only  Clemens Lowik. We talk about innovative approaches for unmixing multiple luciferase-luciferin pairs and quantitative analyses of bioluminescent mixtures, enabling serial tracking of heterogeneous cell populations. On the course of our discussion we learn on how such methods will help advance BLI to cover new exciting regimes, but also spill over to the wider optical imaging. If you're on to exciting developments of the field - listen carefully!Selected Publication: "Multiplexed bioluminescence imaging with a substrate unmixing platform" published in Cell Chemical Biology by the authors C.

We all have that friend who is convinced CBD is a true panacea, but has no scientific evidence to back it up. Well, let me introduce you to a memory researcher who has moved into clinical research focusing on CBD, psilocybin, and other trippy drugs. Manoj Doss walks us through some of his research and what we do (or don't) know about different substances.

#167: Will the Real Israel Please Stand Up During this episode we head back to warmer waters of our podcast by bringing back some of our traditional segments. This week the team talks about Cohen and his little quips he threw out every few minutes. Also they talk through a new proposed Michigan Road Tax that Tanner asks the honest question of how to pay for the roads if the people do not want more taxes. The show continues to the final segment with a discussion on the current state of Israel, the corruption of the current government, and what the future will hold if the Prime Minister is convicted and removed from office. The show ends on the usual note talking about their Quick Saves of the week.

In this edition, we’ll hear about a caterpillar that eats plastic with Paolo Bombelli and Christopher Howe, Current Biology (01:10); what researchers found when they recorded from students’ brains during a biology class with David Poeppel, Current Biology (09:22); how an artificial tongue can identify different whiskeys with Uwe Bunz, Chem (17:52); what anti-flu compounds may lurk inside a species of frog with Joshy Jacob, Immunity (23:07); and some personal reflections on the March for Science, with Stephen Matheson (28:12).

In this edition, we learn about how synthetic pot carries more dangers than traditional marijuana, with Paul Prather and Bill Fantegrossi, Trends in Pharmacological Sciences (0:00), and how bacteria can be manipulated to generate energy, with Guillermo Bazan, Chem (12:30). We’ll also take a look at how animals with very different visual systems see the world with Jennifer Levine (19:40).
