And by what criteria can we define things as “living”? On this week’s podcast, Zimmer, a science columnist for The Times, talks about just how difficult it can be to find answers.“There are actually philosophers who have argued that maybe we should just try not to define life at all, in fact; that maybe we’re getting ourselves into trouble,” Zimmer says. “If you look for a definition of life from scientists, you will find hundreds of them; hu...2021-04-0257 min

Los virus son los seres vivos más pequeños que conoce la ciencia, sin embargo, controlan a todo el planeta. Estamos más familiarizados con los virus que nos causan resfriados o gripe, pero los virus también causan una amplia gama de otras enfermedades, incluido un trastorno que hace que las personas broten como ramas como si fueran árboles. Los virus han sido parte de nuestras vidas durante tanto tiempo, de hecho, en realidad somos parte virus: el genoma humano contiene más ADN de virus que nuestros propios genes.

Give and TakeEpisode 186: She Has Her Mother's Laugh: The Powers, Perversions, and Potential of Heredity, with Carl ZimmerMy guest is Carl Zimmer. His newest book is She Has Her Mother's Laugh: The Powers, Perversions, and Potential of Heredity. In it he presents a profoundly original perspective on what we pass along from generation to generation. Charles Darwin played a crucial part in turning heredity into a scientific question, and yet he failed spectacularly to answer it. The birth of genetics in the early 1900s seemed to do precisely that. Gradually, people translated their old notions about heredity into a language of genes. As the technology for studying genes became cheaper, millions of people ordered genetic tests...2019-10-041h 01

Sean Carroll's Mindscape: Science, Society, Philosophy, Culture, Arts, and IdeasCarl Zimmer on Heredity, DNA, and Editing GenesOur understanding of heredity and genetics is improving at blinding speed.

Today, you can send a bit of your DNA to companies such as 23andMe and get a report on your personal genome (ancestry, health risks) for about $200. Technologies like CRISPR are allowing scientists to edit genes, not just map them.

They evolve faster than anything else, and they are a major engine of the evolution of the rest...2011-06-081h 32
