Having defeated the flu, Dr Shane is back with Dr Ray, Dr Stacey, Dr Jen and Dr Graci to learn that cockroaches are evolving to be less interested in sugar; mice are able to have their dopamine levels read through an implantable device; and dogs can detect covid with remarkable accuracy. Dr Jaclyn Pearson from the Hudson Institute of Medical Research joins the show to talk about the evolution of antimicrobial resistant bacteria; and Mikaeylah Davidson, PhD candidate with Melbourne Uni’s Faculty of Veterinary and Agriculture Sciences, explains her work with frogs and the deadliest wildlife disease every recorded: chytridiomycosis.
