Episode Details

This week's episode takes you from a 12,000-year-old burial site where DNA analysis uncovered rare genetic disease in Ice Age humans, to the discovery of two brain receptors that could revolutionize Alzheimer's treatment with affordable pill-based therapies. We explore how an ultra-fast pulsar near our galaxy's supermassive black hole could unlock secrets of extreme gravity, examine groundbreaking battery technologies challenging lithium-ion dominance, and reveal what 28,000 earthquakes at Santorini told scientists about rising magma. Plus: the surprising truth about compulsive behaviors, a blood test detecting cancer before scans can see it, and evidence that cash assistance programs don't cause the harms critics fear.
