A tardi party for the ScienceAdviser newsletter, and sled dog genomes
Thursday, 10 July, 2025

First up on the podcast, Newsletter Editor Christie Wilcox joins host Sarah Crespi to celebrate the 2-year anniversary of ScienceAdviser with many stories about the amazing water bear. They also discuss links between climate change, melting glaciers, and earthquakes in the Alps, as well as what is probably the first edible laser. Next on the show, freelance producer Elah Feder talks with Tatiana Feuerborn, a postdoctoral fellow in the cancer genetics and comparative genomics branch of the National Institutes of Health, about the evolutionary history of the Greenland sled dog. Her team’s work sequencing 98 genomes from modern and ancient sled dogs reveals the canine’s current diversity and suggests approaches for conservation. This week’s episode was produced with help from Podigy. About the Science Podcast Authors: Sarah Crespi; Elah Feder; Christie Wilcox Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
