Season 5 Episode 38: Kingfisher Diving, Babies, and John Kuntz on Sharks Through Space and Time
About this Episode
Ever pondered how kingfishers dive into water at lightning speed, yet emerge unscathed?
Prepare to have your curiosity satiated as evolutionary biologists Shannon Hackett and Chad Ellison draw back the curtain on this avian marvel, revealing a genomic analysis that identifies over 90 altered genes. Brace yourself as we unearth the secret behind the tau protein, and its potential implications in preventing human concussions and brain injuries.
Imagine an infant's reaction to a dog's sound - cute, right? We thought so too, and so did the researchers behind an endearing study that we will be exploring.
In addition, we're thrilled to have shark biologist John Kuntz with us, who will take us on a mind-bending trip through space and time with sharks.
So, buckle up and join us on this thrilling ride brimming with nature's wonders and the science that helps us understand it all.
