About this listen

Why does taxonomy matter—and what can it teach us about our place among life on Earth? In Part 1 of our two-part exploration of eukaryotic cells, we unpack the history of classification, from Aristotle to Linnaeus to us, and take a closer look at how emergence supports the intricacy and complexity of our experience of life.


Hosted by Michael McNeil. Special thanks to T. Aleman, A. Graulau, J. Ishimwe, and J. Reid.
