And you're looking kind of for like a needle in a haystack.
It's always changing.
We've taught this microbe that couldn't eat plastic, how to eat plastic.
It can be unforgiving, but it can also be awesome.
We care about Heldmünders because we care about the health of the river.
Everything is interconnected.
Let's explore it together.
And what does that mean?
SciNC gives you a window into the frontiers of human discovery.
Inspiring, sparking curiosity.
This year we are also collecting poop.
And answering some of our most common questions.
Our goal is figure out the problems so that we won't have to do it anymore.
So join us as we look at the mind-blowing science all around us and what it means.
To me, this is one of the coolest things in the world.
