What did the recent study using the CRISPR gene editing technique actually entail, and what did we learn from it? Hosted by: Hank Green

Welcome to the romantic, violent, treacherous, and murderous mating lives of bugs.

Earlier this week, a team of researchers announced that they’d made a discovery about how we inherit mitochondrial DNA from our parents that could change what we know about not only disease inheritance, but human history as a whole.
