The Human Lab

What if the human body isn’t as perfectly designed as we think? The Human Lab explores the strange, fascinating, and sometimes surprisingly flawed biology of being human. From regeneration and neuroscience to evolution, physiology, biochemistry, and bioengineering, each episode takes a familiar feature of the human body and asks a deeper question: Why are humans built like this? We’ll break down the science, trace the evolutionary trade-offs behind our biology, and explore how modern science and bioengineering might one day redesign what evolution gave us. Built by evolution. Questioned by science.
