Have you ever watched a sci-fi movie and wondered, How close are we to making this a reality? Or stumbled upon a mind-blowing YouTube video that left you thinking, How on earth did the researcher even come up with this!

You're not alone! I’m here to dive deep into the research for you and break it down—hopefully with some fun analogies—so you can catch up on what you’ve missed in the ongoing entourage of scientific accomplishments and get a glimpse of what the future holds.

Together, we’ll explore the answers to the big questions that everyone wants answers to, like How close are we to solving global warming? (using biology, of course). But we won’t stop there—we’ll also uncover fascinating, lesser-known scientific pursuits, like How close are we to building a fully organic computer?
