"The Serengeti Rules" with author Sean B. Carroll

The natural world is regulated at the microscopic and macroscopic levels: rules regulate every molecule in our bodies, and rules regulate every creature in the wild. But how is mankind using and even altering these rules? Award-winning biologist Carroll will explain the remarkable similarity of the rules that regulate life at such different size levels. He will explain how our deep understanding leads to life-saving medicines, and how the time has come to use life's rules (the 'Serengeti Rules') to heal our ailing planet.
