Global science lies at the edge of a new age of discovery thanks to advances in synthetic biology driving innovations that could reshape human health. Synthetic biology involves redesigning organisms at a cellular level to grant them new abilities. It is, at first blush, the stuff of science fiction; but in fact, it is a reality here in Seattle. In this episode of Lab Notes, we explore the promise and potential of this exciting field with some of the leading minds spearheading efforts ...

[RERELEASE] Lab Notes | Why don’t we understand the brain?
This episode originally aired on March 14, 2022. Why is the brain harder to understand than other organs? What can we learn about our brains from studying octopus arms? Is the human brain even capable of understanding itself? We are revisiting a past episode about the challenges still facing scientists as they work to better understand our brains. Tune in to learn how far we've come, and how far we have to go. Listen on our site or wherever you find podcasts. Behind every science headline, th...
