Podcast Ep. 2: Professor Ameer Taha on Lipid Oxidation, Linoleic Acid, OXLAMS—Debugging Life Podcast

 

I interview Prof. Ameer Taha of U.C. Davis on linoleic acid, lipid peroxidation, oxLAMs, and neurodegeneration.

A great discussion going over some of the seminal research he has done during his career. 

We also discuss his surprising dream research project, one I think would yield major benefits if he were able to pursue it...
