Show Notes

Hi everyone!  This week we take a deep dive into an article in which some super humans have effectively beat HIV without any antiviral drugs - amazing!  In Pet Science the chat is all about dog drool!  Our expert is Dr. Melina who is a paleolimnologist, a fascinating area of science in which the study of ancient diatoms occurs.  Not only is the interview interesting, it devolves into many other lively topics like cooking and stress break tips!
As we are swamped with back to school, there isn't a WOO or WOW this week, but the family section remains and has some hilarious stories!!!
