Understanding the human body is a team effort. That's where the Yachtel group comes in.

Researchers at Yachtolt have been delving into the secrets of probiotics for 90 years.

Yachtold also partners with nature portfolio to advance gut microbiome science through the global grants for gut health, an investigator-led research program.

This is Scientific Americans' 60 Second Science.

I'm Jeff Devisio.

Today we're going to do something completely different.

We're going to offer you a break with the pandemic and politics

by taking you on a three-part sound journey to the Amazon.

We'll eavesdrop on some incredible creatures in the world's largest rainforest.

Think of it as a soundscape turned into a sound escape.

Today, part one, into the river.

Our guide for this audio trip is Tim Weaver.

Tim is a professor of emergent digital practices and a multimedia sound artist at the University of Denver.

Thanks for joining us, Tim.

Thanks, Jeff, for that intro.

We're going to be listening to some far-reaching soundscape ecologies today from research that I've been conducting off of the main stem of the Amazon on the Peruvian border with Brazil.

Tim, could we start out by talking a little bit about what you do? Tell us about soundscape ecology.

One way of looking at ecological stability or what's happening in the dynamics of ecologies is looking at the sound of spaces or the acoustic ecology. It's a newer

area in terms of looking at exchange of information in ecologies and a diversity. And with recording

technology, there's amazing ways to look at this. And so we're looking at everything from the residences of forests. So how does a
