So that's really the crux of the research, and to do that, we need to go one more step.

The first thing you do is understand what is your view

I just want to take a moment to acknowledge the great students who work with me in my lab at Penn and my collaborators.

This is very unusual for caves.

So to begin to answer these questions, we did a research study.

Here, she's trying to get a piece of meat out of a tube.

Did anyone else ever have access to your work?

And then also we had the human habitat of course, with the laboratories, and all of that.

So building community among those students, very important.

Optimize it so that it is more correct, instead of being faster?

Then we showed it in dolphins, and then later in elephants.

But I am also trying to make sanitary pad with the good cotton. It's not working.

He was a senior fellow at the Bremming Institute for 12 years, then went off the grid.

Well this is fantastic. We can do this in real time.

To show people what the institute does.

A spiritual awakening sounds better than breakdown, but I assure you, it was a breakdown.

I'd like to put this kind of Friday night bar discussion aside and get you to actually step into the lab.

It was a randomized control study published in The Lancet.

My mom wouldn't really like that.

Okay, so to sum up, there is a lot of research evidence that early childhood programs, if run in a high quality way, pay off in higher adult skills.

She wasn't forced to learn the piano she saw a researcher play the instrument and took an interest.

In France, we study men, in Germany, books.

They're useless because they don't control for heritability.

Right now the Sloan Foundation has just funded a multi institutional study on this, to work out what the risk and benefits to society are, and the rules that scientific teams such as my own should be using in this area, and we're trying to set good examples as we go forward.

Critical research is being challenged instead of supported, and we saw that it was really essential to have private safe haven laboratories where this work could be advanced without interference.

A few years back a group of researchers at University College London brought a bunch of memory champions into the lab.

Because now, we've shared this molecule, just since December of last year, with 40 laboratories in the United States and 30 more in Europe many of them pharmaceutical companies, seeking now to enter this space, to target this rare cancer that, thankfully right now, is quite desirable to study in that industry.

The researcher suggested promising directions for treating the cancer.

We studied the biota, the ancient biota, the current farming and the protocols.

in the years since, have you shared your research with anyone?

So it was just the pure rendering of the shape of the object.

Well there was a little piece of that Women's Health Initiative that went to National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, which is the cardiology part of the NlH.

One of their R amp D engineers was working on a way to make plastic stiffer.

Whereas government money had always been there for basic science and engineering research, we also counted on some companies to do some basic research, but what's happened now is companies put more energy into short term product development than they do in basic engineering and science research.

It turns out that my father was an M.D., actually studied hormones.

We abandoned the project.

You only need to store things which are really going to effect movement.

Cesar and I tried to write a piece for The New York Times Magazine explaining how this works.

listening to me tonight can be part of that change.

We've got a lab set to your specifications.

He went to the equivalent of an Audubon Society meeting.

Now, it didn't take me any time.

So, then, what happened is I wrote up this idea.

laugh .

I worked on the environmental consequences of nuclear war.
