As a teen, geologist Richie Robertson saw La Soufrière volcano devastate St. Vincent island. Forty years later, when the volcano became active again, the island turned to him. Hear his story in Ep. 2 of "The Leap," with @HypothesisFund pod.link/73329284/episo…

“If you're on the volcano when it explodes… you would end up in the sea as a charred remain.” -- Geologist Richie Robertson of UWISeismic Research on the risks of his work. 🌋 Don't miss this week's episode of The Leap! @HypothesisFund + @SciFri sciencefriday.com/segments/the-v…

Forget Jurassic Park 🦖-- @HypothesisFund Awardee Betul Kacar is resurrecting lifeforms that are way, way older. 🦠 Listen now on The Leap! ⬇️

“You always have that thing in the back of your head: what would you rather be doing? And I was like, I wish I had thought of this experiment.” --#HFScout Harmit S. Malik on Betul Kacar’s work to resurrect 🌎's oldest lifeforms. From @HypothesisFund + @SciFri: sciencefriday.com/segments/the-l…

Plant biologist Joanne Chory spent her career trying to grow plants that could sequester CO2 in their roots. Her wild ideas took hold. Learn about her outstanding career and legacy in Ep. 4 of “The Leap" with @HypothesisFund. 🔊 Listen here: buff.ly/yLqDcDL

New work: Eukaryotic origins! 🥁 We propose that iron -not oxygen- delayed the rise of complex life. Our model reframes the “oxygen delay” puzzle: the gap between atmospheric O2 and early eukaryotic fossils may reflect iron (not O2)-mediated stress: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Revered plant scientist Joanne Chory of Salk Institute talked to us last year about how plants 🌱could save the world. Listen to her inspiring story on The Leap, a @HypothesisFund project w/ @SciFri: sciencefriday.com/segments/be-bo…
