Hey fam! Today we are hitting you with another Intronic episode but this time from high school interns from the Biorocket Program at Genspace who used our show as a model to do some science storytelling themselves. We call their short audio stories, SNP-its, a play upon words from an acronym in genetics that stands for single nucleotide polymorphism and describes common mutations in populations..Over the next 40 minutes you’ll hear four SNP-its produced by this year’s Biorocket interns. The Biorocket interns worked collaboratively over the course of seven weeks to research, write, and produce a short podcast SNP-it about a science topic of their choosing. They covered everything from CRISPR gene therapies and “designer babies” to the environmental impacts of fast fashion and social impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and how it is disproportionately impacting some communities..You can find the transcripts from our interns here, bit.ly/32UxffI..You can find more information about Genspace here, www.genspace.org/.You can learn more about Biorocket here, www.genspace.org/biorocket.If you'd like to donate to Genspace, you can do so here, www.genspace.org/support-us..If you enjoyed this please consider becoming a patron!
