2/7/25 Professor Erin Weber on Potatoes

Part One: We speak with Dr. Erin Weber, Assistant Professor of Chemistry at Carthage. She recently earned a $498,000 grant from the National Science Foundation for her study of a virus that could potentially affect a large portion of the world's potato crop. Her research could help unlock the secrets of how these viruses do the damage that they do. Part Two: from the archives- we hear a renowned chef, the late Raghavan Iyer talk about his cookbook "Smashed, Mashed, Boiled and Baked- and Fried, Too: A Celebration of Potatoes in 75 Recipes." (from 2016)
