Description

Welcome to episode 29, before we begin the show Yosif and I talk about our new website and all it's cool features. In addition Dr. Chris Fasano was nominated for Stem Cell Person of the Year and everyone needs to go out and vote for him. You can go to stemcellpodcast.com/vote. We then kick off the science round up and review all the latest papers. Dr. Ginger Campbell, host of the brain science podcast, then joins the SCP where we discuss her podcast and different "brainy" topics. We close the show ranting about the iPhone 6. Enjoy!
