The Modern Good
The Oxymoron of "Settled Science" with Alexandra Muñoz PhD
Today's episode features Alexandra Muñoz PhD, an interdisciplinary research scientist, challenging the genome-centric paradigm of molecular biology. We discuss the current structure of securing research grants and the flaws in this system at large. This episode pulls back the curtain on the manipulation and bias that can creep into the sphere of Science if we don't work to acknowledge it in ourselves and the system as a whole.
