[Summer Rerelease] Enzyme-Directed Evolution

Welcome to our special summer rerelease series! Carolina and Clara take a trip down memory lane with a special series dedicated to their older episodes, including ones you may have missed! This week Carolina and Clara discuss enzymes and enzyme-directed evolution. Enzymes are these incredible biol…

A Time for Celebration: Adam Smith reveals what really gets our laureates celebrating

In this special bonus episode of Nobel Prize Conversations, we shine a light on the many ways achievements in science are celebrated — from quiet late-night breakthroughs in the lab to the glittering applause of the Nobel Prize award ceremony. Host Karin Svensson speaks with Adam Smith, Chief Scien…

168. Chemistry, Evolved

Frances Arnold pioneered the process of directed evolution — mimicking natural selection to create new enzymes that have changed everything from agriculture to laundry.   SOURCES: Frances Arnold, professor of chemistry at the California Institute of Technology.    RESOURCES:  "Innovation by Evo…

#41 Jenny Kan: Investing In The Future Of Bio-manufacturing

I sit down with scientist-turned-investor Jenny Kan, co-founder and general partner at Juniper VC, to talk about why bio-manufacturing is critical to making cleaner chemicals, materials, ingredients, and products—closer to home. We discuss the shift from making things with petroleum to microbes, wh…

MTS31 - Frances Arnold - Engineering Microbes

Dr. Frances Arnold is a professor of Chemical Engineering and Biochemistry at the California Institute of Technology (most of us know it as Caltech). Dr. Arnold’s research focuses on evolutionary design of biological systems, an approach she is currently applying to engineer cellulases and cellulol…

The Evolution Of An Enzyme Engineer Who Changed Chemistry

In nature, enzymes are the catalysts that make much of biology work. They jumpstart chemical reactions that either wouldn’t happen, or would happen super slowly. They break down food, build other molecules, extract energy, and more. What if we could harness evolution to engineer designer enzymes th…
