In this episode of the Nature Podcast, we catch up on some science stories from the holiday period by diving into the Nature Briefing.
We’ll hear: how Brazil’s President Lula has started to make good on his pro-environment promises; a new theory for why giant ichthyosaurs congregated in one place; how glass frogs hide their blood; about a new statue honouring Henrietta Lacks; and why T. rex might have cooed like a dove.
