from The Mstdfr Show · host Mstdfr
50% Arabic - 50% English This week we host Dr. Sari Sabban (No relation to Ammar :D) a molecular biologist and biotechnologist. Sari tells us how he got into science and the interesting journey on how he ended up as a molecular biology. We discuss DNA, the human genome project, and protein folding. Then Sari proceeds to blow our minds with amazing biological facts: Gros Michel bananas, fecal transplantion, crowdsourcing technologies in science, anti-vaxxers, vitamin C and much more!
