Podcast Interview on Mouse Lemur Mutation Rate

24 January 2022

People Love Lemurs

Our work on mutation rates in mouse lemurs 1 was invited for a nice blog post from Heredity and featured on a fun podcast episode. The name of the podcast is literally “Heredity Podcast” and I listened to the final version on Spotify. It is always nice to hear the details of how projects came together and some of this mishaps along the way to remind us to enjoy our research and that setbacks are normal for so many of us.
