ACS launches new science podcast series, Tiny Matters

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26, 2022 鈥� The American Chemical 中国365bet中文官网 (ACS) is producing a new, biweekly science podcast called Tiny Matters, which is available wherever you listen to podcasts. Head to ACS鈥� website or your favorite platform and subscribe.

The first episode drops today. Hosts Sam Jones, Ph.D., and Deboki Chakravarti, Ph.D., chat with experts about the ancient beasts that went extinct 65 million years ago, but whose remains still captivate us today 鈥� dinosaurs. Scientists around the world regularly discover new fossils, and that helps piece together the mystery of what dinosaurs and other extinct creatures were like. That information doesn鈥檛 just inspire movies like 鈥淛urassic Park鈥�; it also helps researchers predict Earth鈥檚 future and could even lead to more sustainable technology.

Tiny Matters is a science podcast about things small in size but big in impact. Every other Wednesday, the hosts will uncover little stuff that makes big stuff possible. Upcoming episodes will find them answering questions such as 鈥淗ow does our brain form memories?鈥�, 鈥淲hy haven鈥檛 we terraformed Mars yet?" and 鈥淲hy isn鈥檛 there a vaccine for HIV?鈥�. Tune in!
