The Groks Science Show from WHPK at the University of Chicago

I have to read lots of papers for my PhD so I decided to record some of them! I study the genetic evolution of a microbial pathogen species. Some of my favorite things to learn about include the evolution of disease and how ecology and evolution interact to influence the structure of genetic networks. Send me your paper/topic requests on twitter @rssatterwhite!

Morris, C. E., Kinkel, L. L., Xiao, K., Prior, P., & Sands, D. C. (2007). Surprising niche for the plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae, 7(1), 84–92. 

Second half = RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Uncited is a casual science talk show by two real-life research scientists! Rebecca is a PhD candidate in Ecology and Evolution at the University of Chicago, and Kristen is a research technician in Cell and Developmental Biology at Northwestern University.

Oh, hi! It's me, the Groks Science Show from WHPK at UChicago, with your host, Becca Satterwhite! Episode 23 is the first episode I recorded in 2020, lo those many months ago.

From January 30, 2020, we chat with Chicagoan and co-host extraordinaire, Kristen Vosberg! We play Fake Stork/Real Stork -- including a remarkable note about 1890's German sea captain Hugo Storm--, talk power jams and other study strategies, plus the incredible co-evolutionary story of fig wasps, and how to use reverse psychology to keep kids away from junk food.

It's your old pal, the Groks Science Show from WHPK at UChicago, with your host, Becca Satterwhite! I recorded Episode 22 oh so many nights ago, on December 5, 2019, with my friend and fellow science PhD candidate, Olivia Gray! We laugh while talking about all kinds of science, from wasps that mate seemingly for no reason, to the microbes that live inside of flowers, and the cancer-causing potential of very hot beverages.

It's the Groks Science Show from WHPK at UChicago, with your host, Becca Satterwhite! I recorded Episode 21 on November 14, 2019 with WHPK's own Booking Director, Bryce von Trash! We play Fake Snake/Real Snake, talk male-stuffing in wasps, adorable fish chasing lasers, and transmissible cancers in mussels!

It's the Groks Science Show from WHPK at UChicago, with your host, Becca Satterwhite! I recorded Episode 20 on October 17, 2019 with returning guest extraordinaires Unjin Lee and Dylan Sosa. We play Fake Title/Real Title, talk about newly discovered WASP planets, and discuss the evolution of cave-dwelling fish!

It's the Groks Science Show from WHPK at UChicago, with your host, Becca Satterwhite! I recorded Episode 19 on October 4, 2019 with incoming graduate student and molecular evolution enthusiast, Dylan Sosa. We talk about how orchids use chemical trickery to get more wasp pollinators, how plant roots transform bacteria into moving filaments, and more!
