There are benefits to chilling out. When we cool superconductors to 460℉ degrees below zero, they acquire extraordinary properties that help run quantum computers. Can artificially cooling human bodies also provide profound benefit? Some cryonics startup companies say yes, promising “life after death” through cryogenic freezing. While it's one thing to freeze all the cells in a body, it is another to revive them. What happens, for instance, to memories when brains thaw? While we gauge how low human body temperatures can go, new research suggests another form of life could find home in the cooler temperatures of Jupiter's moon Europa. Find out how NASA's Europa Clipper mission will investigate whether that moon could support alien microbes.  Guests: Steve Austad – Distinguished Professor at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and Scientific Director of the American Federation for Aging Research Olivia Lanes – Global Lead for Quantum Content and Education at IBM Quantum Austin Green – Post doctoral research associate at Virginia Tech University, and former JPL postdoctoral fellow and affiliate scientist on Europa Clipper Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake Big Picture Science is part of the Airwave Media podcast network. Please contact advertising@airwavemedia.com to inquire about advertising on Big Picture Science.

The Routledge Handbook of 1989 and the Great Transformation analyzes the pivotal year of 1989 and the transformation processes that resulted from a historical perspective. It brings research done over the past five years at the Research Center for the History of Transformations (RECET) into dialogue with cutting-edge scholarship by political scientists, sociologists, historians, literary scholars and anthropologists at institutions across Europe and beyond. In this episode of the Transformative Podcast, two of the handbook's editors Rosamund Johnston and Jannis Panagiotidis (both RECET) talk through the four main arguments made by the book: that the “great transformation” presented here started earlier than 1989; that its legacies linger in spaces, practices, and objects; that in order to grasp the scale of what happened around 1989, it is important to bring Eastern and Central Europe into conversation with other global regions; and that the former Eastern Bloc served as an important node in a larger, global transformation. They also reflect upon how the events of that momentous year can be used as a hinge to explore longer-term processes of economic, social, political, and cultural transformation linked to the rise of neoliberalism and globalization since the 1970s. Find out more about the Routledge Handbook. Rosamund Johnston is a postdoctoral researcher at RECET. She is the author of Red Tape: Radio and Politics in Czechoslovakia, 1945-1969 (Stanford UP, 2024) and Havel v Americe (Host, 2019). Jannis Panagiotidis is the Scientific Director of RECET. He wrote the books: Antiosteuropäischer Rassismus in Deutschland (Anti-East European Racism in Germany) (Beltz/Juventa, 2024), The Unchosen Ones. Diaspora, Nation, and Migration in Israel and Germany (Indiana UP, 2019) and Postsowjetische Migration in Deutschland: Eine Einführung (Beltz/Juventa, 2021).

For decades, agriculture has relied on chemistry to feed the world. But as the sector faces new environmental, regulatory, and sustainability challenges, a quiet revolution is emerging — one that looks to nature for the answers. At the heart of this shift is Dr. Gustavo Sosa, Founder and Scientific Director of INBIOAR Global LTD, whose work focuses on discovering natural compounds that can replace synthetic herbicides and pesticides. His mission is simple yet powerful: to inspire a cleaner, smarter agriculture built on nature's own intelligence. In this episode of The Let's Talk Agriculture Podcast, hosted by Sharon Nkwah, Dr. Sosa shares how biodiversity is driving innovation in crop protection, what Africa can learn from Latin America's clean agri-tech journey, and how young scientists can lead the next wave of sustainable transformation. Tune in to hear how nature is not just part of agriculture's past, but its future

Restoring France's priceless artifacts is delicate and painstaking work, but now experts at the Louvre in Paris are using the same lasers used by top dermatologists to rejuvenate skin. Conservators at the world-famous museum say the lasers are now an essential tool, and they're giving us a rare look inside their laboratories. The restoration is carried out by experts at the Centre for Research and Restoration of the Museums of France (C2RMF). Cleaning sculptures takes months, but it would have taken much longer if the technicians did not have access to the latest laser technology. They are the same advanced lasers that are used on human skin in cosmetic procedures, and they've been funded by the French cosmetics giant L'Oréal. Delphine Kerob, dermatologist and Scientific Director of La Roche-Posay at L'Oréal, says lasers such as the Infinito and Erbium lasers being used by the technician here are the same ones used for delicate skincare. Curator Laetitia Barragué-Zouita says there is a fine balance between deep cleaning and conserving as much as possible of the artifacts. She says, “For us, it is extremely important because in the sculpture field, many pieces we have to restore were displayed outdoors and have black crust or thick grime on the surface. And sometimes, the limestone is more fragile than the black crusts. And we have to find a way to clean them up without damaging the original material. And a laser, which has only thermal and mechanical action, helps us not to damage the original surface. So it's a lifesaver, in fact, for us.” Barragué-Zouita says the technology has helped them get through painstaking and delicate work far quicker than they would with other methods. She says the technology “helps us to operate on a wider range of materials. But also to work faster because, particularly with the Infinito laser, it is more powerful. It is very helpful when we have thick black crust or grime, and it helps the workshop to be more efficient for the museums.” This article was provided by The Associated Press.

 Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. Featuring Mark Ratner, Scientific Director of Theralogix. In this deep dive into fertility supplements, Mark Ratner helps us decode the science behind NAD and its exciting role in longevity and reproductive health. NAD itself can't be taken directly—it must be boosted through precursors, which then power SIRTs, a family of seven proteins that regulate cellular health, mitochondrial function, and even egg longevity. Among them, SIRT1 is particularly important for egg rescue and extending reproductive potential. Mark explains how these pathways differ from the effects of coenzyme Q10, yet still play a key role in energy production within the mitochondria. We also explore the latest research on Ovasitol, an inositol supplement important for PCOS management. The new formulation, which includes added milk proteins, may enhance absorption and overall effectiveness. Finally, Mark introduces OvaNAD+, a newly available Theralogix supplement that delivers the right NAD precursor to support SIRT activation, energy production, and reproductive health. This podcast is sponsored by IVF Florida.

In cooperation with the Austrian Research Foundation for International Development (ÖFSE)Irene Horejs in conversation with Kathryn Nwajiaku-Dahou and Stephan KlingebielDOES THE „ZEITENWENDE“ MEAN THE END OF INTERNATIONAL AID?At the beginning of 2025, President Trump started his 2nd Presidency by shutting down USAID and 90% of US foreign aid. The “stop work order” hit aid organizations and vulnerable communities particularly in Africa like a bomb. Aid organizations stopped working from one day to the other, US financed medicines stopped being distributed, health centers and medicine stores remained closed. Some UN agencies like UNHCR and WFP, both highly dependent on US finance, were forced to drastically reduce their operations and staff– all with a devastating impact on the affected populations.However, Donald Trump was not the first one to cut down foreign aid agencies and budget.  In 2020, Boris Johnson dissolved DFID, the highly prestigious aid agency of the UK and merged parts of it into the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. More recently, other EU donor countries like the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany and Austria reduced their aid budgets and framed them into short term interests like curbing migration, securing trade and others.Does the “Zeitenwende” mean the end of international solidarity and of development as a global good coordinated by a set of norm giving, multilateral institutions? Are we confronted to a new politization of aid? Or is this only an “easy” way to save strained budgets in face of the new imperative of rearmament? What is the impact on developing countries, affected populations and how do they react? Are there any alternative means to finance not only humanitarian aid, social and economic development but also the necessary actions against climate change?Introductory Remarks:Werner Raza, Scientific Director, ÖFSEKathryn Nwajiaku-Dahou, Director of the Politics and Governance programme at the Overseas Development Institute (ODI), UKStephan Klingebiel, Head of the research department „Inter- and Transnational Cooperation“ at the German Institute of Development and Sustainability (IDOS)Moderator:Irene Horejs, Former Director of DG ECHO and former EU Ambassador to Peru, Mali and Niger This second event under the focus “Humanity in der Zeitenwende” is organised in cooperation with the Austrian Research Foundation for International Development (ÖFSE).

You might not think of light as a healing tool, but red and near-infrared light can do some pretty amazing things, especially when it comes to pelvic health. From easing perimenopause struggles to helping your body bounce back after birth, this kind of light therapy is opening up a whole new world for women dealing with pain, discomfort, or intimacy issues. I had such a good conversation with Dr. Genevieve Newton (Fringe's Scientific Director) and Elizabeth Frey (Pelvic Health Physiotherapist) about how this all works, and why more women need to know about it. If you've been dealing with stuff “down there” that no one seems to talk about… this is your episode.   We broke down how light therapy works on a cellular level, why the pelvic region responds so well to it, and how vibration and frequency add even more benefits. Liz shared some powerful stories from her practice, real women seeing real results, like less pain, better intimacy, and more confidence in their own bodies. And Dr. Gen? She brings the science in a way that totally makes sense. Plus, we got into the details of the Pelvic Wand, a little device doing big things for women's health.   We also touched on what the latest research is saying about all this (spoiler: it's pretty exciting), and how to know if this therapy might be right for you. Whether you're healing, curious, or just want to feel more connected to your body again, there's something in this conversation for you.   And quick side note: there's a new Mighty Maca flavor in town!

It's a seemingly simple question from What the Duck?! listener Skylar: how do scientists determine a new species?Turns out, it's complicated.And it's got Ann Jones impersonating a dog on the internet to try to find out what breed she is, as well as asking, 'what is a species anyway?'.Featuring:Skyla Seltzer, What The Duck?! listener.Beanz and Henry the dog.Link Olson, Curator of Mammals, University of Alaska Museum.Dr Nicola Rivers, Monash University.Professor Paul Hebert, Scientific Director, International Barcode of Life.Dr Leo Joseph, Australian National Wildlife Collection CSIRO.Tim Low, Biologist and author.Thanks also to Ying Luo for background information.Production:Ann Jones, Presenter / Producer.Petria Ladgrove, Producer.Additional mastering: Hamish Camilleri.This episode of What the Duck?! was originally broadcast in December 2023 and was produced on the land of the Wadawarrung and Kaurna people.

Dev Mittar, Ph.D., Scientific Director of the ASM Health Scientific Unit discusses the use of metagenomic next generation sequencing to develop agnostic diagnostic technology, giving scientists and clinicians alike, a tool to diagnose any infectious disease with one single test. He also discusses how the ASM Health Unit is empowering scientists and leveraging microbial science innovations to address critical global health challenges and improve lives worldwide. Ashley's Biggest Takeaways The Division of Research, Innovation and Ventures is a small entrepreneurial arm of BARDA that takes on early-stage projects with high potential of turning into medical countermeasures. Prior to his role as Scientific Director for ASM Health, Mittar worked as a health scientist and program officer at DRIVe, where he focused on advancing high-impact science. He is particularly passionate about his work to develop agnostic diagnostics—a single test that uses metagenomic next generation sequencing to identify any pathogen from 1 clinical sample. Mittar discusses applications for this technology in surveillance (pandemic preparedness), variant detection, AMR and clinical settings (diagnosing complicated infections where etiology is not clearly defined). He also shares how a recent bout with illness emphasized the value and potential of this technology to save money, time, pain and suffering of the patient. Agnostic diagnostics can also help prevent the overuse/misuse of antibiotics, which are key factors in the spread of antimicrobial resistance. Furthermore, when this technology is coupled with the use of metatranscriptomics, it can provide information about the patient's immune profile that can be helpful in developing personalized treatment strategies, as opposed to a one-size-fits-all approach. ASM is organizing around 3 scientific units, ASM Health, ASM Mechanism Discovery and ASM Applied and Environmental Microbiology. These units will empower researchers and scientists to use science make a difference in the world and provide a forum for them to come together to shape the future of the field.

What are we sleeping less and less? What are the benefits of getting a good nights sleep and the risks if we consistently don't? How is sleep linked to memory, cognitive performance, blood sugar regulation & stress hormones? How is young people's development affected by sleep?In this episode we have the surprising data on the science of sleep to get up to date on; so, why there's a sleep deprivation epidemic; how sleep works and what it's required for; dreams; and importance of sleep for learning and for immunity.

It's a no-brainer. And I teach a lot of female executives, male too, but I would say both of them are highly self-critical. I differentiate between self-awareness and self-criticism. Self-awareness is, oh, you know what? My statistics are terrible. Like I actually need to hire a statistician to help me on my team. That's self-awareness, right? Self-criticism is, I'm a terrible accountant. I can't do this. Like, I'm just so bad, all that stuff is either going to make you feel less than and all the consequences thereof or make you feel like you have to make up for it by being a jerk or "narcissist." Everyone's a narcissist these days, according to everybody else. You know what I mean? But, like, yeah, both of those are consequences of profound self-hatred. That's why, you know, self-awareness is key. Self-criticism? Not so much.Innovation starts with resilience and a sovereign state of mind11:24: What we need the most is innovation, both in our young people, in our employees, and all around ourselves. We need to figure out the problems in our lives, and the best way to access that is to come back to, I'm going to call it, a sovereign state because when you're sovereign and you're sort of centered within yourself, and you're in a calmer state, and you're less frazzled, and also the whole antifragile thing. Well, it's antifragile psychologically, so you're in a state where you are most resilient to the outside world and most creative.Why leadership begins with your well-being33:25: People can't flourish around you if you're stressed, if you're burnt out, if you're showing up yourself; it's not going to happen. As a leader, people are watching you. They're very attuned to you because they're watching out for their own safety, and they're measuring where they are at, where they stand, and so it's critical. I think that's a place where people get lost. You're like, "Oh, well, if I just offer these perks or see these things, everything will be fine." It's like, well, really, people see through you. They see through you. And if you're not authentic, they know that.
