Poor Fruit Fly

Why does everybody want to experiment on this poor fellow?

Hard to believe that this is our 25th podcast already. Thanks to all our loyal listeners! This week, our host Frank Dondelinger guides us through stories about wacky fruitfly research, a new type of solar cells, a tricky virus (no, not HIV this time), and much more. So sit back and enjoy our take on the buzzing power source of science stories that made the headlines (or at least the science pages) of newspapers over the past couple of weeks.
