Big Biology

CHAPTER

Introduction

Big biology is a non-profit podcast that focuses on some of the biggest ideas in biology. This week we'll be talking about one of our favorite horror movie tropes, zombes. The main character of the story is the ophio carticeps fungus which makes their living parasitizing insects. We're also starting a new series called little biology where our interns talk about an idea they think deserves to be in the spotlight.
