Showing results for "Bedrock" in Science & Engineering

We are calling all of those interested in a career in STEM and want to learn how to navigate the landscape of graduate school! Earth Science graduate students, Jeanette and Sharifa, discuss how to maneuver graduate school, and host special guests who share their non-traditional origin stories on how they became researchers, scientists, engineers and artists. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This podcast starts at the beginning of Earth's prehistory and works forward through time. Bedrock will explore the first 90% of Earth’s past, a time known as the Precambrian Era. Before humans, before dinosaurs… there was the Precambrian. The Earth was an incredibly alien world, but not a dead one. Along the way, you will build a mental toolkit to see the world like a geologist. You will never look at a mountain, the moon, or pond scum in quite the same way again. Welcome to Bedrock.

Have you ever wondered what Quakers, Jains, and Sikhs have in common? Why is it that ascetic practices have been revered in nearly all parts of the world? Did you know that many 'new' discoveries in psychology are now validating ideas that the Buddha taught 2,500 years ago? In this series we explore the underlying concepts and ideas that appear to be at the core of many religious, and at times secular, traditions.
