Genetics Unzipped podcast: Sex and death
Posted by Kat Arney, on 15 August 2019
In this episode from our centenary series exploring 100 ideas in genetics, we’re telling tales of sex and death, and exploring the very darkest side of genetics. We discover how Francis Galton’s eugenic ideas led to some of the worst atrocities of the 20th century, and ask how his legacy should be honoured today – if at all? Plus, the evolution of sex, and the total eradication of mosquitoes.
