Edie Widder

Alan Jamieson, a marine biologist from the University of Western Australia, and Edie Widder, an expert in bioluminescent creatures, explore the striking adaptations of deep-sea fish. They discuss how these fish survive under extreme pressure and the secrets of bioluminescence in the dark ocean depths. Notably, they highlight the role of TMAO in protein function and uncover the surprising challenges of studying life in the abyss. Their journey reveals insights into one of Earth's most mysterious ecosystems and the limits of marine survival.
