About this Episode
In 2020, the esteemed physics professors Eugene Chudnovsky and Luis Anchordoqui published thatr describes a theoretical form of life unlike anything else.
Eugene and Luis suggested that a combination of cosmic strings and magnetic monopoles could perform the tasks of DNA at a subatomic level.
Eugene Chudnovsky received his undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral education at Kharkiv University in Ukraine, and has been engaged in human rights for years, among many other things as Co-Chair of the Committee of Concerned Scientists. We talk a bit about his experiences in the Soviet Union before he left for the US. The episode was recorded before the invasion of Ukraine.

Ida Neverdahl & I have made a travelogue comic from Russia, MOSCOW. We participated in one of the last pro-LGBT demonstrations before it was deemed illegal, and also experienced first hand how street protesting already in 2015 were strongly regulated. The book is out in english, and the publisher, Centrala, has now put "Moscow" as part of their Ukraine help sale. Please check out MOSCOW and the other books from Centrala here.

For Norwegian readers, I have a new book out, "ANTIBIOTIKA, helt og antihelt", together with Norway's foremost authority on antibiotics resitant bacteria, prof. Dag Berild. It's been called a "pedagogical bullseye" by Dagens Næringsliv and it's a short, easily digested and remembered summary of Berild's 30 years of research on how bacteria develop antibiotics resistance. Even Norway can cut our consumption of antibiotics in half without sacrificing anyone's health, and in the book we show how. April 3rd we present it at Litteraturhuset Oslo, Saklig Søndag. I will also be at Fantasticon in Copenhagen June 25th, and Art Bubble in Aarhus September 16th.
