- Description
- Welcome to the Full Semester Podcast. The Full semester podcast is a series that explores a single topic in roughly the same depth as a full semester college course. This semester we'll be exploring the topic of Evolution. There are three types of episodes: 1) Standard Lecture episodes, these are designed to be listened to in sequence, as they build upon the material from the previous week 2) Article discussions, these are stand-alone episodes that discuss a particular scientific article, these will sometimes be referenced in the main lecture series 3) Multi-voice podcast or random topic within evolution, completely stand alone. I hope you'll join me to learn a little bit about this incredibly impactful subject, and I hope that you'll learn something that changes your life.

| 2017-03-31 | Last time we talked about transcription and translation; but that’s not all that cells do with genes. If you think about all the different cell types in the body, from your brain cells to your muscles, you realize that these cells must be different, ri... |
|
| 2017-03-18 | This is the second episode in our two part series on transcription and translation, that is, how cells produce the proteins they use. Last time we talked about transcription, so we’ve already covered how we use cellular machinery to create edited mRNA ... |
|
| 2017-03-14 | Today we're going to be talking about the nucleus, and what happens there. We’re talking about how cells use their DNA to produce mRNA that will be translated into proteins. This episode takes us through a short history of genetic thought, transcriptio... |
|
| 2017-02-24 | Today we’re going to have a pretty long episode. I’m going to take you on a nice leisurely tour of the cell. You’ll learn all about the structures that make up cells, what they do, and how they interact. All organisms are made of cells, so we should ta... |
|
| 2017-02-17 | I told you at the start of the semester that we’d be learning about general biology this semester, but here we are at the fifth episode and all we’ve talked about so far is a chemistry! Well today we’re finally getting into the biology. Today we’re goi... |
|
| 2017-02-09 | Today we’re going to finish up talking about carbon and start in on the properties of biological molecules. I know it can seem like I’m dragging on about chemistry and not getting to the biology here, but there are some subtleties in this episode that ... |
|
| 2017-01-30 | This week we're talking more explicitly about the basic chemical processes that life relies on including water, acids and bases, and a few more. This will lead directly into the next two lectures which center around how we build the molecules of life. |
|
| 2017-01-23 | Hey all, welcome back! Today we're going to be finishing up the introduction to biology by thinking about what science is as a concept, we'll go through some themes that permeate biological science, and we'll end with a description of a field experimen... |
|
| 2017-01-20 | Welcome back to the Full Semester Podcast for Spring 2017. This semester we'll be starting a two-semester series about General College Biology (What many universities call Bio 101). We'll use this knowledge as a platform for future seasons, so make sur... |
|
| 2016-12-19 | Hey all, this is going to be the last episode before christmas since I wasn't able to bring my recording stuff with me on vacation. The episode is a very cursory overview of species concepts and of speciation. Have you ever considered what we actually... |
