United Statesa year ago I've listened to naked scientists and naked genetics for over a decade and it is consistently a balanced and exceptional quality program. Accuracy is always to priority, and the delivery of the program is well thought through. I wish I could say the same of other pod casts including the often inaccurate and offensive BBC Science Hour, but with show like Naked Genetics you've got what you need
Podcast Addict55 years agoheathwilder- Best genetics podcast out there!
I have been searching for a great, well informed but still enjoyable podcast on genetics. I’m a biology student and though I’ve taken many genetics and evolution courses, I’m still learning a great bit! I LOVE the monthly genes that get discussed!
Apple Podcasts5ManonKBUnited States6 years ago - Don’t know how this doesn’t have 5 stars!
I’ve listened to the 3 most recent ones. As a doctoral student in genetics, I’ve still learned quite a few things and received some interesting insights from then podcast thus far. I hope it comes back!!!!?
Apple Podcasts5Codydude00000United States7 years ago - Come back!!
This was one of my favorite podcasts! It provides a digestible overview of some of the most important news in the (very broad) realm of genetics. The host, Dr. Kat Arney, is grounded and engaging.
I think this podcast is best for folks who have a basic working knowledge of genetics, and an interest in “pop science!”
