Natural Prodcast
Natural Prodcast is a podcast about natural products and the science and scientists of secondary metabolism. Natural products, secondary metabolites, specialized metabolites -- whatever you want to call them, they're the chemicals that make species unique and different from one another, and are incredibly important to medicine, the environment, and human health. Hosts Dan Udwary and Jackie Winter introduce concepts in this exciting field, and talk to the fascinating scientists who work in it. This series brought to you by the US Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute.

Natural Prodcast Ep 2 - The Primer - part 2 of 3
This is part 2 of our “primer” episode, so if you ended up here somehow without having listened to the first part, you might be a little lost, and I’d suggest you go back and check the first episode out. This one continues the introductory conversation between myself and Alison, and we continue with the basic ideas of the science of natural products, and we dive into the very early history of the field. If you continue on, in the next episode you’ll hear us talk about the modern history of natural products and the state of the field today.
