The Science Pawdcast - A podcast by Jason Zackowski

This week on The Science Pawdcast we chat the genetic structure of vampire bats.  Kris and I are fans of a silly vampire show called What We Do In The Shadow's and when a new study comes out about Vampire Bats, you know I'm going to break it down.  In serious science news, we look at a paper that found linkages between a relatively non-lethal cancer in dogs and a lethal cancer in humans.Our expert guest is Particle Accelerator Engineer Dr. Alex Gabard who blows our minds with how particle accelerators work, the theory of relativity, but also a somber discussion about having Long Covid.We have the Mail Bag back!  That's it for the show!Dr. Gabard on twitter:https://twitter.com/lychtenstynBunsen and Beaker Links:The Bunsen Website has adorable merch with hundreds of different combinations of designs and apparel- all with Printful- one of the highest quality companies we could find!www.bunsenbernerbmd.comOur Spaces Sponsor: Bark and Beyond Supplyhttps://barkandbeyondsupply.com/Bunsen and Beaker on Twitter:https://twitter.com/bunsenbernerbmdBunsen and Beaker on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/bunsenberner.bmd/InstaBunsandBeakshttps://www.instagram.com/bunsenberner.bmd/?hl=enSupport the showFor Science, Empathy, and Cuteness!Being Kind is a Superpower.https://twitter.com/bunsenbernerbmd
