Summary

For a subject that won the Nobel Prize in 2012 and could be considered a scientific miracle, we surprisingly don’t hear a lot about cloning today. This episode, Dr. Vilceu Bordignon joins Dr. Samantha Yammine to give us an update on where we are with the science of cloning and how that technology is moving forward. Sam also looks into some new studies that explain why some old houses feel haunted and a surprisingly eco-friendly way to deal with termites.    Link to Show Notes HERE     Follow Curiosity Weekly on your favorite podcast app to get smarter with Dr. Samantha Yammine — for free!
