Z jakiego powodu pioruny uderzają częściej na lądach niż na morzach, zabijając przy tym dzwonników? W jaki sposób matematyka kształtuje embrion świerszczy? Jak można hodować ludzkie embriony, po co to robić i czy w ogóle powinno się pozwalać na to nauce? Zapraszam na sobotni odcinek podkastu Naukowo, w którym sprawdzimy również czy kawa polepsza psychiczne samopoczucie oraz jak bezsenność je drastycznie pogarsza.Jeśli uznasz, że warto wspierać ten projekt to zapraszam do serwisu Patronite, każda dobrowolna wpłata od słuchaczy pozwoli mi na rozwój i doskonalenie tego podkastu, bardzo dziękuję za każde wsparcie!Zapraszam również na Facebooka, Twittera i Instagrama, każdy lajk i udostępnienie pomoże w szerszym dotarciu do słuchaczy, a to jest teraz moim głównym celem :) Na stronie Naukowo.net znajdziesz więcej interesujących artykułów naukowych, zachęcam również do dyskusji na tematy naukowe, dzieleniu się wiedzą i nowościami z naukowego świata na naszym serwerze Discord - https://discord.gg/mqsjM5THXrŹródła użyte przy tworzeniu odcinka:Siobhan Roberts.

Alzheimers What's behind the claim that 1 in 3 people born in the UK this year could get Alzheimers? How reliable is the science in psychology? The Reproducibility of Psychological Science project reported recently and it made grim reading. Having replicated 100 psychological studies published in three psychology journals only thirty six had significant results compared to 97% first time around. So is there a problem with psychological science and what should be done to fix it? One of mathematics' enigmas He is described as one of the most charismatic mathematicians but he is also shy and enigmatic. Professor John Conway has been described as a genius whose most famous innovation is the cell automaton The Game of Life - Tim talks to Siobhan Roberts about the man and his life. Is it more difficult to play against ten men? Arsene Wenger has said it, Sam Allerdyce and Steve Bruce have said it too - it's more difficult to play against ten men. It's an oft quoted footballing cliché but is there any truth in it? Decimate Tim used the word in an interview last week to mean devastate rather than cut by ten percent - many listeners said this was unforgivable - was it? - We ask Oliver Kamm - Author of 'Accidence Will Happen: The Non-Pedantic Guide to English Usage'.
