Science FridayFrom Microbes To Mammoths: How Life Transformed The PlanetWhen you think about Earth, you might think of a giant rock, floating around in space, making laps around the sun. A rock that just happens to have critters, plants, and people crawling around its surface.
A new book by Ferris Jabr called Becoming Earth: How Our Planet Came to Life argues otherwise: Life doesn’t just exist on Earth, but life is Earth, and the Earth itself is alive.
That idea might sound radical, and it is. There’s a shift happening in how we understand the planet, and what it’ll take to save it...2024-07-0329 min

Chan School of Public Health confirms what many people have assumed, as well as additional findings about period regularity in younger generations.

Science FridayWhat To Do When Your Hypothesis Is Wrong? Publish!Most scientific studies that get published have “positive results,” meaning that the study proved its hypothesis. Say you hypothesize that a honeybee will favor one flower over another, and your research backs that up? That’s a positive result.
But what about the papers with negative results? If you’re a researcher, you know that you’re much more likely to disprove your hypothesis than validate it. The problem is that there aren’t a lot of incentives to publish a negative result.
But, some argue that this bias to only publish papers with positive results is w...2024-07-0118 min

That takes time. Yet the communication to the public in this pandemic seemed to be worse than normal, and resulted in a huge loss of public trust. Over the past month, we spoke to nearly a dozen scientists who all agreed the CDC could have done better. But the root causes of the CDC’s shortcomings will be hard to fix.2021-06-3012 min

But despite pushback on this story from many scientists and the media early on, it’s back in the news, and many are talking about the possibility of a lab leak. There may be some legitimate reasons to do more digging, but the debate has gotten heated. And when a conversation is centered around controversy, instead of science, we can lose sight of the bigger, more important picture.2021-06-0214 minTrust MePen to Paper to Execution - Part 1Our guests for this episode are Bryan Kirk of Fiduciary Trust International and Daniel Lorenzen of Fox Rothschild, LLP.

On this week's episode, we look into how big of a risk unvaccinated kids pose to society, and what parents should keep in mind.2021-05-0707 minPODCAST-19: FiveThirtyEight on the Novel CoronavirusYou Might Have Given The Coronavirus To Your CatWe've learned time and again that animals can give diseases to humans. We've seen this happen with coronaviruses, the flu, Ebola -- basically most major disease outbreaks in recent memory. But, of course, the reverse is true too: Humans can give viruses, including the novel coronavirus, to animals. FiveThirtyEight’s senior science writer Maggie Koerth wrote about this on the site earlier this week, and she joined PODCAST-19, FiveThirtyEight’s coronavirus podcast, to discuss her work further.2021-04-2812 minPODCAST-19: FiveThirtyEight on the Novel CoronavirusWhat A Donated Vaccine Can DoThe United States has a surplus of COVID-19 vaccines — more than enough to vaccinate every adult. Poor countries, however, are still struggling to secure doses. Should those vaccines be sent to countries in need? If not, who will do the sending? And should rich countries profit off the exchange?2021-04-2216 minPODCAST-19: FiveThirtyEight on the Novel CoronavirusThe Johnson & Johnson Pause Shows The System Is WorkingFederal health agencies asked states to pause in their use of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine while U.S. officials investigate reports of an extremely rare blood-clotting syndrome that has developed in six people who have received the vaccine. Given how few people are sick, why did the U.S. recommend a pause? And what's it say about how the monitoring system is working?2021-04-1414 minPODCAST-19: FiveThirtyEight on the Novel CoronavirusWhat The Heck Is Going On With AstraZeneca's Vaccine?The AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine has been hailed as the world’s vaccine -- it’s inexpensive to produce and doesn’t need super-cold storage like the mRNA vaccines do. But its rollout has been messy. Will its missteps erode the public's (or the FDA's) trust? Maggie Koerth joins to discuss.2021-03-2615 minPODCAST-19: FiveThirtyEight on the Novel CoronavirusHow To Overcome Vaccine HesitancyAt some point, the U.S. is going to run out of people eager to get the vaccine, and we’ll need to work hard to convert those who are still hesitant or don’t know how to get it. It won’t be the first time we’ve done so. For months, community leaders have been working to overcome transportation challenges, language barriers, and digital divides. We speak to five of those leaders on this week's episode to hear how they convinced people to get the vaccine, and what that might mean for the months to come. 2021-03-2227 minPODCAST-19: FiveThirtyEight on the Novel CoronavirusThe COVID-19 EndemicOn this week's show, we discuss what the endgame of the pandemic will be.

Unfortunately, at times data has been in short supply, because US government agencies haven’t always undertaken national data collection efforts. So what happens when individuals citizens try to collect data themselves? We talk to Professor Emily Oster, who developed a national COVID-19 School Response Dashboard, to find out what she’s learned about COVID in schools, the implications of volunteers developing their own public health trackers, and how she thinks the Biden administration will approach pandemic data collection.2020-12-1120 minPODCAST-19: FiveThirtyEight on the Novel CoronavirusHow To Trust That A COVID-19 Vaccine Is SafeIt feels like a cure for this pandemic may be in sight. But for many people, injecting a brand-new scientific discovery into their body won't sit well. So, how are scientists making sure that a COVID-19 vaccine won’t cause more damage than the disease? How do regulators decide what an acceptable side effect is? And what would happen if someone did have a serious reaction to the COVID vaccine after it was released? This week, we’re devoting our whole show to vaccine safety.2020-11-2121 minPODCAST-19: FiveThirtyEight on the Novel CoronavirusThere's No Longterm Plan For Long COVIDOur producer, Sinduja Srinivasan, reports on long COVID, and how our health care system might cope with so many patients with ongoing symptoms.2020-11-1316 minPODCAST-19: FiveThirtyEight on the Novel CoronavirusWhat To Make Of Pfizer's Big Vaccine AnnouncementThis week, Pfizer announced that its coronavirus vaccine may be more than 90 percent effective.
