- A rare trait may hold the secret to better memory
- Date posted
- 4 years ago
- Description
- In episode two of our video series Exceptional Humans, we go to Italy to spend time with Carletti in San Leo and in Rome, where researchers scan her brain to unlock the secrets of her memory.
We also make a detour to the Netherlands, where researchers in Nijmegen are studying an entirely different group of people with an exceptional capacity to remember: memory athletes, who train to memorize numbers or decks of cards.
By looking where the two lines of research overlap and diverge, we gain an appreciation of how memories can help—and hurt—us, and how improving our memories can alter our brains.

- How to grow weed in China, legally
- Date posted
- 4 years ago
- Description
- Cannabis is fast becoming the world’s newest cash crop. In southwest China’s Yunnan province, farmers make more money growing and selling the plant than they can from more common crops like corn or wheat. But growing weed in China is not as simple as planting seeds in the ground.
Many places in the world are becoming more tolerant of the drug, and in some US states and Canada, recreational use is now legal. That is far from the case in China, where drugs are heavily stigmatized, and trafficking marijuana can lead to a death sentence.

- The rise of China has created a new kind of Chinatown
- Date posted
- 4 years ago
- Description
- Chinatowns aren’t what they used to be. A newer, more modern version of them is emerging across the English-speaking world. These new Chinese settlements have established themselves in New York, Sydney, LA, Melbourne, Vancouver, Toronto, and beyond.
Historically, old Chinatowns were urban and almost exclusively settled by low-skilled laborers. Settling in one those old Chinatowns was a necessity, not a choice. Racist host countries were happy to relegate immigrants to segregated ghettos, and sticking together offered safety in numbers.

- Description
- Politicians from Canada, the US and Australia have all turned to Chinese “super app” WeChat to reach Chinese voters in their countries.
In this latest episode of Because China, we go to Australia to understand how WEChat could affect elections and democratic processes of another country. We break down how misinformation travels within the WeChat’s unique information ecosystem and why the app is a channel for Beijing to extend its censorship beyond China’s borders.

- Description
- In just a year, a virus known as “African Swine Fever” has wiped out about half of China’s pig herd, the largest in the world, and has since spread to neighboring countries in Asia.
The ASF epidemic offers a rare window into understanding China’s fragmented, underdeveloped agriculture sector, and how it can have a major impact on the global trade system into which it’s now deeply integrated.

- What we can learn from magicians about managing risk
- Date posted

- Description
- Good magic feels like it's all up to chance—the right card happens to be in the right place at the right time. All of that is, of course, an illusion, achieved through hours and hours of practice.
Rachel Wax works in fashion by day and magic by night in Speakeasy Magick at The McKittrick Hotel in New York. In this second episode of our member-exclusive show RISK, she tells us that the biggest risk most magicians face is not messing up a single trick, but rather losing control of the audience. And she has a secret weapon to protect herself.

In the first episode of RISK, we meet Sam Antar, former white collar criminal. Then we travel to the world’s first Center for Risk Literacy in Berlin to learn why most of us are "risk illiterate" and how, precisely, we can change that.

- Will virtual dating outlast the pandemic?
- Date posted
- 4 years ago
- Description
- For the first time in history, virtually everyone who’s dating is dating virtually. Covid-19 has forced a pivot to video for many of the estimated 41% of online singles on dating apps worldwide. And an ongoing slow shift within the industry has accelerated.
Bumble, which launched in-app video chat in 2019, said its use increased 56% worldwide over the last two weeks of March. Mentions of FaceTime, Skype, and Zoom on OKCupid dating profiles went up 180% from February to March. People are eating together, streaming together, and visiting islands together on the game Animal Crossing.
If nothing else, virtual dating is, at least temporarily, showing us how to be human on dating apps. As relationship therapist Esther Perel told Quartz, “People are entering into each other's erotic minds at this moment since they can't enter into each other's bodies. And that's a lot more intimate.”
Watch our video to learn what, exactly, the world of virtual dati...

- Because China: Covid-19 may disrupt China's role in the global drug supply
- Date posted
- 4 years ago
- Description
- Where are our drugs made? The answer turns out to be really complicated. A bottle of pills with an American label may be distributed by a company based in the US, but those pills are often made and packaged in other parts of the world. And the starting chemicals that make the drug effective, or Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, often come from one country—China.
This reliance on China has long been a concern, but the world had largely accepted the trade-off between consolidation risks and cost. Until Covid-19. The pandemic challenges an already vulnerable global pharmaceutical supply chain at a time when medical systems around the world are already facing unprecedented pressure.
