Welcome back to the Information Entropy Podcast we’re diving into the fascinating (and sometimes controversial) world of animals in science… what’s really going on? From life-saving medical research to quirky behavioral studies, we’re exploring the why, how, and what of using animals in experiments. Over 115 million animals are used in scientific research around the globe each year and play a crucial role in understanding diseases, testing treatments, and ensuring the safety of new products. Hopefully today we will give you all the information necessary for you to feel informed and make a decision about how you feel on the subject. If you already have an opinion hopefully you learn some new things and can be open to exploring others opinions, even if you disagree! Music: HOME - AWAY

Welcome back to the Information Entropy Podcast where today we embark on a deep dive into the theory of evolution. Starting with the basics of what evolution is, we explore how life on Earth has developed and diversified over millions of years. We break down the key mechanisms—natural selection, genetic drift, mutation, and gene flow—and discuss how these forces shape entire populations. Plus, we tackle the complexities of speciation, looking at how new species emerge from common ancestors. Music: HOME - AWAY
