Hi Everyone! This is the first episode in a periodic series we\'re going to do called \'side quests\'. Sometimes we come across science stories that aren\'t quite enough to do a full episode on, but are interesting and fun to talk about! So from now on we\'ll occasionally present them as a series of shorter stories within an episode! In this episode, we\'ll discuss a competitor of Louis Pasteur, a high school that appears to be the center of a cluster of brain tumors, and a historical example of unethical experiments on prisoners incarcerated in the USA.
