Join us as we welcome Dr. Betül Kaçar, an Assistant Professor at the University of Arizona. She and her team explore the molecular mechanisms of evolution, the origin(s) of life, and the distributions of life in the cosmos. Dr. Kaçar uses a paleophenotyping method to resurrect ancient genes within modern organisms. Outside of her incredible career in research, she’s also an educator and was one of the co-founders of SAGANet!
This program is an interactive talk show where our guest will answer questions from our host, Dr. Sanjoy Som, as well as questions submitted via Twitter, Facebook, and SAGANet chat.
