Science Stories

Science Stories fortæller historier om videnskab baseret på nysgerrighed og fascination af viden og indsigt, men vi kan også være kritiske og stille spørgsmål ved veletablerede dogmer. Vi stræber efter at forstå grundlaget for viden og sætte den i perspektiv. Redaktionen er uafhængig og ikke underlagt udefrakommende politiske eller kommercielle interesser.

  • 309 - Algorithms and the patterns of life

    Science Stories is visiting the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg and asks some of the leading researchers about their work. This week science journalist Jens Degett interviews Dr Anna Kreshuk about how she and her research group is working with algorithms and image analysis to understand fundamentally how life works from the most primitive to the most advanced organisms and how living systems function together from individual organisms to ecosystems. This podcast is supported by a Maria Leptin / EMBO Science Journalism Fellowship.

  • 307 - On the creation of life 2

    Experts from all over the world met four days during the Summer 2024 invited by the Niels Bohr Institute to discuss the available knowledge on the theme: Are we a Unique Species on a Unique Planet? - or are we just the ordinary Galactic standard? A selection of recognised scientist gave their best bid on: - Life on Exoplanets? - Disks and pre-biology - Terrestrial contra alien biology - Future of life and humanity In this podcast science journalist Jens Degett from Science Stories is interviewing Professor Uffe Gråe Jørgensen from Centre for Exolife Sciences at the Niels Bohr Institute at University of Copenhagen. The Conference was organised by Centre For Exolife Sciences at the Niels Bohr Institute, and the main organiser was Professor Uffe Gråe Jørgensen with support from Carlsberg Foundation, CHAMELEON, Niels Bohr Institute Foundation, Novo Nordisk Foundation and University of Copenhagen Release date: 01.11.2024

  • 305 - [Best of] Circadian Rhythms

    All organisms from fruit flies to humans share the same mechanism for controlling the day and night rhythms also called the circadian rhythms. This mechanism is considered fundamental to all advanced life forms, and it has a surprising feature. It binds us genetically to live on earth. Michael Rosbash received the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 2017 for the discovery of the circadian rhythms together with Jeffrey Hall and Michael Young. He is a professor and Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator at Brandeis University. In 2019 he was invited by The Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters to give the nineteenth Royal Academy Nobel Laureate Lecture in Copenhagen and was interviewed by science journalist Jens Degett.
