This episode examines how Darwinian evolutionary theories contributed to understanding the COVID-19 pandemic and, eventually to defeating it with mRNA vaccines.

This episode explains how we had anticipated, using Darwinian logic, a pandemic, not in its exact form but in some form, at least 7 years before it actually came, but had failed to respond appropriately..

Albert Camus, the Nobel-winning author of The Plague and a foremost proponent of existentialism, Jonas Salk and Albert Sabin, both inventors of polio vaccines, and Francis Crick, often called the smartest biologist of the century, are having a dinner party, discussing the pandemic and viral evolution.

Darwinian evolution posits that all living organisms are related by kinship. This allows a grand unification--a gene that influences a human disease might also do something important in flies, worms or baker's yeast. We therefore study these genes to discover their functions, then infer their possible functions in human diseases.

This AI-generated podcast is taking place in a parallel universe. Here are three giants: T. H. Huxley, known as Darwin's Bulldog, J. B. S. Haldane, reputed to be the smartest biologist of the 20th century, and Stephen Jay Gould, the Harvard Naturalist who became an evangelist for Darwinian Evolution in the late 20th century. They gossip about how to measure the likenesses of genes and proteins, and most of all, why care?

This episode explains how the human immune system is a micro-evolutionary system occurring within the human body. A simple idea that triggered a billion-dollar immunotherapy industry.

This episode describes an otherworldly meeting that explores the idea that the human immune system is really evolution on a racing car.

Why do we age?

The answer lies in the heart of Darwin's theory of evolution.

Can we reverse aging?
