Summary
In this episode, we are joined by Amy Bernard, the head of strategy and programs for the nanoscience and neuroscience divisions of The Kavli Foundation. She sits down with us today to discuss her work in neuroscience, molecular genetics, cell biology, biochemistry, imaging, physiology, open science, and more.
With more than 30 years of experience, Amy provides support for fundamental scientific research – and her efforts are making a real difference.
The Kavli Foundation is a nonprofit research organization that supports science philanthropy. With the help of experts like Amy, they are on a mission to support advances for the benefit of humanity…
Magnesium is integral for 600+ biochemical processes in the human body. The common misconception is that consuming more magnesium will automatically improve health and well-being. The truth is that there are various forms of magnesium, each of which is essential for a variety of physiological processes. Most people are inadequate in all forms of magnesium, while even those considered "healthy" typically only ingest 1 or 2 kinds. Consuming all 7 of magnesium's primary forms is the key to accessing all its health benefits.That's why we packed 7 forms of 450mg of elemental magnesium into each serving of Wild Mag Complex. One dose a day is all you need. Learn more and grab a bottle today at WildFoods.co. Use code GENIUS for 10% off your order.
