020 Sex and Death
Kat: Hello, and welcome to Genetics Unzipped - the Genetics Society podcast, with me, Dr Kat Arney. In this episode from our centenary series exploring 100 ideas in genetics, we’re telling tales of sex and death, and exploring the very darkest side of genetics.
This podcast has been going for six months now, and we’d love to know a bit more about you and your thoughts on the show - what episodes have you enjoyed? What topics would you like us to tackle? Would you like to buy a book of our 100 Ideas in Genetics? Pop over to geneticsunzipped.com/survey to fill in our very short listener survey before the end of August, and you’ll be entered into a prize draw to win a signed copy of my book, Herding Hemingway’s Cats. Thank you very much.
