UnDisciplined

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about big animals like wolves, bears and lions — and really tiny life forms, like yeast.

Every week on UnDisciplined, we put to researchers from completely different fields together and see what connections they can make.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're gathering up a motley gang of science geeks to talk about some of the biggest stories in science over the past few weeks.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about the ways computers help people do things better.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about stress, but from two very different scientific points of view.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about the intersection of science and personal decision-making — and, of course, we're looking at it from two very different perspectives.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about climate, but at two very different scales.

In UnDisciplined's first ever monthly science news roundup, we're joined by three researchers, plus a fellow science enthusiast, to take a look at recent science news through a bunch of different perspectives.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about why we don't do the things we know we should do. Why, for instance, don't we get as much sleep as we're supposed to? And why do we often withhold information from our doctors?

We're talking about the ways warfare can build bonds in tribal societies, and how air pollution can have devastating effects in our modern world.

2018 is going to be remembered as a huge year in science.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're joined by a scientist who helped create a transgenic mouse that can help us understand the human relationship with a vital molecule. We'll also chat with a researcher who just announced the discovery of nearly 50 new species right here in Utah's Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking to a researcher whose work is going to change the way you think about the red planet. Then, we're going to talk to a scientist who is changing the way we think about how to diagnose and treat neurodegenerative diseases.

This week on UnDisciplined, we talked to a researcher whose discoveries have changed the way we understand the history of tobacco in North America. Then we chatted with a scientist who is trying to change the way we think about cryptocurrencies.

This week on UnDisciplined, we unpack two studies that are changing conventional wisdom.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about really small things, like cell cultures and their effect on research, and really big things, like our planet's climate and its effect on human movement.

What do Judi Dench and Samuel L. Jackson have to do with ending crime waves and curing blindness? We'll find out this week when we're joined by guests Elizabeth Vargis and Sherry Towers.

Each week on UnDisciplined, we bring two researchers together to talk about their recent work.

Paul Rogers is racing to save a one-tree forest. Lisa Berreau is trying to prove that carbon monoxide can be good for us. Like we do every week, we'll try to draw connections between these two very different areas of work.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about how evolving research impacts health recommendations.

This week on UnDiscipined, we're talking about extending life — how nature does it and how humans might do it. Grace DiRenzo investigates the way animals evolve to beat deadly natural chemicals. Laura Niedernhofer studies natural chemicals that might help us prevent aging and put off death. Together, we'll talk about Fisetin, frogs, fungus, zombies and immortality.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about the way people and animals move from place to place. Rick Geddes studies economic solutions for reducing traffic. Lori Spears is an entomologist who helps develop ways to keep non-native insects out of North America.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about how genes impact plant growth, but from two very different perspectives.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about the way newspapers impact the way people think, and the ways pollution impacts solar energy.

This week on UnDisciplined, we're talking about measuring wildlife — but at two very different scales.
