Ep. 80 The Scale of Cell Biology

Petri Dish

Proteins, DNA, viruses, cells... they're all so small, it is hard to get a feel for what their deal is, they just seem so abstract! This week on Petri Dish, Nathan and Sean shrink down to the size of an average protein and hang out in different environments to help you visualize what a day in the life of a protein is like!

This episode has a promo for Plants and Pipettes, a plant molecular biology podcast! Check them out on twitter @plantspipettes!
