Can microbes save us from global warming?

Welcome back to Science is Fun! Don’t forget to hit-up our mailing list and to check out our back catalog.

My guest this week is Dr. Adam Arkin, our first interview outside of UCSF! Adam works across the Bay at Lawrence Berkeley National Labs and is a leader in the emerging fields of systems and synthetic biology. He has published >300 papers on a wide range of subjects and tells us about some of the large-scale initiatives he’s currently leading and his fascination with viruses and bacteria.
