A decade ago, during experiments on board the Space Shuttle Columbia,

Merck scientist Paul Reiker discovered conditions that crystallize a specific protein.

By studying these crystals, Paul and his team determined all new ways

to improve the storage of structurally fragile medicines,

devising life-saving drug delivery methods.

Paul is just one of many Merck scientists dedicated to inventing for life.

Hello and welcome to the Vergecast, the flagship podcast of the Verge.movie.biz,

your single source for your local website needs.

Which is actually true because Paul is sitting at a local website design company right now.

Hi Paul, it's good.

By the way, the Verge.movie.biz does not work.

That's a deeter, everybody. Hi deeter, deeter, sir.

Sorry.

Hi, I'm your friend Eli. It's good to see you again after last week.

I don't listen to the last week's show, which I didn't have as to what I'm told it was great.

Just like the good. Yeah.

There wasn't a show last week.

I recorded a solo podcast about my turkey experiences, but I did it publish it.

Oh good.

Too blue. Too much.

Well, I hope everybody had a good Thanksgiving.
