    Episode 14 - Filmmusik

    Episode 14 - Filmmusik
    Heute geht es um eines unserer Lieblingsthemen - Filmmusik! Musikalisch wie wir beide angehaucht sind, tauchen wir ein in die Welt der Melodien und Gesänge, ausdrucksstark und gewaltig, leise, einfühlsam und mitreißend. Was wären Filme ohne die passende Musik? Oder funktioniert ein Film auch ohne? Wir hören mal rein!

    Palaeontology

    Palaeontology

    Palaeontology is the study of the history of life on Earth through fossils, a fascinating branch of science that enhances our understanding of extinction, biodiversity, evolution and preservation, and how to respond to climate change.

    Professor Kate Trinajstic is a vertebrate palaeontologist and Curtin Research Fellow, who specialises in armoured prehistoric fish. Her work focuses on how early vertebrates evolved an internal skeleton and complex musculature, how lungs developed, and how teeth and jaws evolved.

    She is accomplished in a variety of micro-analytical techniques, including synchrotron and neutron scanning of fossil materials, which have opened up exciting new avenues for non-destructive investigations of the structure of fossils.

    Her primary field work is in the Kimberley region of Western Australia at the world-famous Gogo fossil site, which was once an ancient barrier reef teeming with fish.

    In this episode, Professor Trinajstic discusses how palaeontology can inform our response to climate change, how she uncovers and analyses fossils, her fieldwork at the Gogo fossil site and the discovery she made that reset the evolutionary calendar.

    Monsters Episode 3: King Kong vs. Gravity

    Why isn’t King Kong scaling the Empire State Building right now? Should we worry about Godzilla rising from the depths of the Pacific Ocean? Shane Campbell-Staton, co-host of the podcast The Biology of Superheroes and Harvard PhD ’15 in Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, talks about our favorite movie monsters, and some of the biological processes that could make them come to life.
