Learn how envenomation feels, why hot-water immersion is a common first aid, how tiny skeletal features distinguish near-identical species, and how deep-sea venoms are yielding promising drug leads. Plus, a look at how Embersilk helps solve complex, AI-enabled challenges in science and industry.Note:  This podcast was AI-generated, and sometimes AI can make mistakes.  Please double-check any critical information.Sponsored by Embersilk LLC
