Quotes in this episode

~

The whole matter is part of the general problem of the interrelation between physiological action and chemical structure.

            -G. Malcolm Dyson

~

Corpora non agunt nisi fixata.

(Entities will not interact unless bound.)

-Paul Ehrlich

 (Everything starts with binding.)

-O.R. Pagán, free translation

~

…both nicotine and curari [sic] combine with a “receptive” substance in muscle, i.e., with some substance which is not the actual contractile molecule, though capable of acting upon it.

-J.N. Langley

~

Planarians are rather wonderful and challenging beasts whose rather special biological and psychological talents and properties can make them fascinating subjects for scientific investigation. The worms will provide the fascination—it is up to you to provide the science. 

-James V. McConnell

~

…there is no lack of papers summarizing results that disagree, actually or apparently, with the concepts of quantum biology.

-K.G. Zimmer

~

It may, of course, be argued that these ideas, too, are speculative, but on the whole, speculations based on known phenomena are to be preferred to those which have their origin in pure fantasy. 

-G. Malcolm Dyson

The Baldscientist Podcast - Episode 018 - Dr. C. Andrew Frank - The Best Scientists

***Note: I say the word "bas*ard" (very quietly) in this episode.***

Episode notes

Dr. C. Andrew Frank (Andy) is a Professor of Anatomy and Cell Biology at the University of Iowa College of Medicine, who studies neuronal plasticity using the arguably best understood animal model in genetics, the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster).

In addition to his scientific accomplishments, Andy is a kind and sensitive person. The conversation that you will hear in this episode centers on a twitter thread that he posted a few months ago, a poem titled: “The Best Scientists”. I am not ashamed to admit that when I read it, I got misty-eyed, and right then and there I decided to share it with the world.

His poem undoubtedly has something to say to scientists of any persuasion:



Academia or not.

Tenure-track or not.

Girls, boys, or none of the above.

Students, young and… not so young.

With doctoral degrees, or not.

Any ethnicity.

Citizen scientists.

And many others.



I’d like to think that this poem will inspire much-needed conversations about inclusivity, collegiality, and respect.

And, well, we also nerd out about science!

Andy kindly gave me permission to reproduce the poem; I posted it at baldscientist.com. I hope you like it as much as I did.

Enjoy the episode!
