Hosts Harvard PhD @SCampbellstaton and @ArienTBOSP explore the intersection of where science and sci-fi meet! ๐ฆ๐ฆธ๐พโโ๏ธ Link to new episodes! โฌ๏ธ
๐จ NEW EPISODE ALERT! ๐จ
How do ants organize to perform such complicated tasks? What has made them one of the most successful groups of animals on the planet? Which ant species has the most unbearable sting? ๐โก
Link in bio for full episode to learn more with @CorrieMoreau
Have you heard this week's #TalkNerdy with @SCampbellstaton?
We discuss many things including the evolution of pathogens like SARS-CoV-2, and how the poaching of elephants during the Mozambiquan civil war has led to increased tusk loss.

binge listening to @superbiopodcast as I plow my way through my backlog of xrays and toepad scans. It's almost like @SCampbellstaton is here w/me saying 'hurry up K!' as I productively procrastinate instead of working on our collaborations
Big #HellAnt news today @CurrentBiology: fossilized predation confirms hell ant mandibles functioned unlike any living species. We propose evolutionary integration analogous to the vertebrate skull provided access to new adaptive space in this wild lineage https://t.co/KqAjQZjNvs
Just watching @NECSS lecture by @superbiopodcast about evolutionary origins and biology of the Wonder Woman Amazons species for second time. Hillarious! Thanks for that!
Thanks for the thoughtful and kind podcast review, Josh! A huge element of our show dynamic is rooted in the friendship we've grown over the last 10+ years since undergrad, so it's nice to hear that it contributes in a positive way to the experience for folks tuning in๐ฆธ๐พโโ๏ธ๐๐พ๐ค
Evolutionary biologist @SCampbellstaton of @UCLA talked to us about his podcast @superbiopodcast that explores the biology of science fiction, what Jurassic Park tells us about genetic rescue, why Spiderman's webs can support his body and so much more: https://t.co/6MwStGBZ23
If youโre a geek about comic books and/or biology, check out the Biology of Superheroes podcast @superbiopodcast... their episode on โFlash of Two Worldsโ talks about Flashโs travel across parallel universes and convergent evolution.
Cool stuff.
I teamed up with @DaysEdge and @BIOINTERACTIVE to share my newest research on ivory hunting and the evolution of tusklessness in African elephants. It's been an incredible and challenging journey. I feel pretty damn lucky right now. Check it out! ๐๐๐๐https://t.co/surGFCP6hg
I'm so incredibly proud to team up with @cschell_canids, @CylitaGuy, @schoolingadream, Briana Sealey, @DNLee5, & Nyeema Harris on this new @NatureEcoEvo paper: "Recreating Wakanda by promoting Black excellence in ecology and evolution". Wakanda forever!
