I’m excited to announce the fourth episode of our new series, What’s New in Science, co-hosted by Sabine Hossenfelder. Once again, Sabine and I each brought a few recent science stories to the table, and we took turns introducing them before diving into thoughtful discussions. It’s a format that continues to spark engaging exchanges, and based on the feedback we’ve received, it’s resonating well with listeners.

Peter Singer and Kasia de Lazari-Radek have a lovely podcast called Lives Well Lived, and I was privileged to be asked to be a guest on it.

Elon Musk wants to create a permanent human colony on Mars. He has recently announced plans to land the first human on the Red Planet within this decade, with the view to establishing a million-strong Martian colony within 20–30 years.

Garth Slysz is a friend, and was also the hospital physician who treated my mother in her last days. I have come to know him as a dedicated and caring physician, and one who is also interested in keeping up with the latest research in his field. He is also involved in some active research himself, with his son, who is a Prof. at Dalhousie. He was motivated to write this piece by some important new groundbreaking research recently reported in Nature regarding the response to antibiotics in mice.

One of the best parts of hosting the Origins podcast is talking with remarkable scientists whose ideas have changed the way we understand ourselves and our world. My recent conversation with Neil Shubin was particularly enjoyable, not only because Neil is a friend whose insights I admire, but because our dialogue ranged across some of the most fascinating questions at the intersection of evolution, exploration, and human curiosity.

FSUC is pleased to announce our inaugural case, Margaret Munn v. the University of Western Ontario. Yesterday, Western was served with a lawsuit for breaching this Faculty of Education student's free speech and forcing her to endure a two-year ordeal to remain enrolled in her https://t.co/gbjUGtSQnC

I am happy to say that it appeara, after a variety of technical glitches, that the paywall on my @Quillette piece, which describes how Elon Musk’s Mars plans are not just illusory, they are dangerous, has now been removed. https://t.co/cvX0vMgC7H

Paywall removed I believe. https://t.co/cvX0vMgC7H
