Nobel Laureate Thomas R. Cech on why Ribonucleic Acid rocks

Season 2024 · Episode 65

Saturday, September 7, 2024 • Duration 45:13

Dr Thomas R. Cech shared the nobel prize in chemistry with Sidney Altman in 1989.

His book titled “The Catalyst: RNA and the Quest to Unlock Life's Deepest Secrets”, released in June, is a brilliant read. RNA has helped us understand the mysteries of the origins of life during the big bang and saved millions of lives by concocting life-saving vaccines during the pandemic. It does more, of course. In this podcast Tom also talks about his first lab, how he helps students to deal with failures in their experiments, how to write without using jargons and his experience of winning the Nobel Prize.

Sunday, August 18, 2024 • Duration 47:04

The power around what to do with "digital remains" lies with a handful firms like Meta and Alphabet. Dr Öhman opines that we can't solve the privacy of the living unless we solve privacy of the dead. The dead, by the way, have no privacy rights. And now Artificial Intelligence is changing the way we grieve. What does this mean for all of us and what can we do about it?
