We're doing something a little different this week. You'll have to wait until next week for a new podcast episode. But instead of doing a "Best of" episode this week, we decided to share this talk I did for the UCSF Evolutionary Medicine Conference last year. It was a huge honor to participate in the event. I think you guys might enjoy this, especially if you're in the medical field.

I recommend watching the video of this talk instead if you can, as you can see the slides. You can view it here https://youtu.be/0NglsDFJVG8
