Questions asked by 13 and 14 year old kids at a science lecture yesterday. [View all]
I went to this lecture yesterday:
Science On Saturday: How Diet and Obesity Shape Our Immune System’s Ability to Kill Cancer
There were 13 and 14 year old kids asking questions that blew my mind, for instance, asking to explain the differences in lysozymes and granulocytes in NK killer cells and how their distribution in cytoplasm was affected by obesity.
I can't remember all the questions kids asked, but I was impressed.
It is a terrible thing, with these fine young minds, we are destroying science in this country.
The lecture should be available as a recording on line in a few weeks.
It was rather amazing, I have to say. Dr. Lynch when asked what teacher inspired her, said her teacher was a nun in Catholic High School who taught evolution, albeit claiming it was inspired by God.
This got a hearty laugh from the audience.
Dr. Lynch is an immigrant, from Ireland.
In former times, the world sent their best and brightest to the United States. No more....
