It's Halloween and we're bringing you some extra scares with David Cronenberg's The Fly.Guess who's back? Schrodinger's cat—as well as Jeff Goldblum, who's more fly than ever (sorry). Freda tries her hardest to convince us that teleportation is NOT cloning, Abi ponders the stupidity of arms wrestling, and somewhere there's a black nylon in a tangled mess.But can ants do amazing gymnastics?_______________________________Some things you might find interesting:The Fly Science:https://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/movies/ct-ent-the-fly-cinema-science-20171019-story.htmlQuantum Teleportation:https://www.bbvaopenmind.com/en/science/physics/teleportation-is-here-but-its-not-what-we-expected/How to Teleport Schrödinger's Cathttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxQK1WDYI_kThe No Cloning Theoremhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owPC60Ue0BE&t=158sOriginal Quantum Teleportation paperhttps://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.70.1895CRISPR Ted Talk by Jennifer Doudna (Nobel Laureate 2020!)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdBAHexVYzc&t=162sCRISPR readinghttp://sitn.hms.harvard.edu/flash/2014/crispr-a-game-changing-genetic-engineering-technique/https://theconversation.com/what-is-crispr-gene-editing-and-how-does-it-work-84591 Hosted on Acast.
