We at Across the Cline and SciComm@UCR, would like to respectfully acknowledge and recognize our responsibility to the original and current caretakers of the land, water, and air on which we record this podcast: the Cahuilla, Tongva, Luiseño, and Serrano peoples and all of their ancestors and descendants, past, present, and future. This place is home to many Indigenous peoples from all over the world, including our colleagues, guests, and community, and we are grateful to have the opportunity to live and work on these homelands.Fungi are queer guys! This month, we are joined by Frances Cannon, an interdisciplinary writer, artist, educator and Mellon Science and Nature Writing Fellow at Kenyon College, and Patty Kaishian, the curator of mycology at the New York State Museum, to talk about what it means to be queer and how does it show up in science. When do the boxes or categories break down? How do we queer research? To learn more about our guests, please see the links below:https://frankyfrancescannon.com/https://patriciakaishian.com/
Episode 18: Politics and Plants (01:19:40)
This month, we are chatting with Lida Halilovic, a plant pathology graduate student at UC Riverside, and Henry Harrison, a political science student at UCR. How do organisms and nations "make" decisions when in conflict? How are these complex systems made, and what limits them? Get ready for an episode about plants, fungi, and political science!

Both the words “jazz” and “anarchy” bring up ideas of chaos and disorder. But is jazz just “playing the wrong notes” and anarchy just “a lawless landscape?” Hey all you cool cats, today we are joined by two jazz musicians, Andrew Stevens and Joel Wenhardt, and author, activist and Professor of Environmental Studies at Georgetown University, Dr. Randall Amster, to listen to some jazz, chat about how leaders emerge, and patterns in chaos.

Episode 10: Water, STAT! (02:20:43)
When we talk about science, we often are specifically referring to Western science. Yet, what are we losing in writing off other ways of knowing? Today, we talk with Michael Blackstock, an Indigenous artist, poet, and scholar from the Gitxsan Nation, and Jeff Ellis, a PhD student in the Statistics Department at UC Riverside, about how we can interweave Western science and Indigenous knowledge to better understand our world and address current crises. Are models just metaphors?

Episode 6: Biased Learning (01:44:55)
Our world is increasingly becoming one where we use computers and machines to help us make decisions. Surely, lines of code are better at handling bias than people, right? Or are they not so different from us at all? Today, we’re joined by two UCR students, Kayla Chaplin, a Social Psychology PhD Student, and Dimitris Chatziparaschis, an Electrical and Computer Engineering PhD Student, to learn about the back and forth between psychology and computer sciences in reducing the biases in ourselves and our creations.

Episode 5: Social Maths (01:23:01)
What can math and social insects tell us about what happens when concepts or individuals come together? Are we more than the sum of our parts? In this episode, Andrea Stine, a grad student in UCR’s Department of Mathematics, and Dr. Brian Whyte, who completed his PhD in the Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management at UC Berkeley, join us to explore emergent properties, the ideas of scaling and relationship in their fields, and different systems to determine truth.

Episode 4: Sexual Bias Playscript (01:32:24)
What happens when we exclude half of the population? In celebration of International Women’s Day (March 8th), we are joined by Paige Goodwin, a feminist playwright and lecturer at UCR, and Nora Wolcott, a PhD candidate in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at UC Santa Barbara, to discuss the history of sexism in both theater and neuroscience and its influences our perceptions of success and validity in these fields today. We’ll also learn how Nora and Paige each work to confront these biases.

Episode 3: Science Fantasy (01:40:13)
How does storytelling as a fantasy writer and as an ecologist further our understanding of the world? We’re going to adventure across this cline with William Ota, a PhD candidate in the Department of Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology at UCR who studies freshwater ecology and Rachael McLaughlin, a fantasy novelist and UCR Creative Writing alum.

Episode 2: Concerning Conservation (01:36:46)
What do you think of when you hear the word “conservation?” In this episode, we’re joined by Annika Rose-Person, a PhD candidate in the Department of Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology at UCR and Anisha Gupta, a PhD student in the Department of Art Conservation at the University of Delaware. Together, we’ll explore what conservation means in the worlds of biology and art as well as how society has shaped practices and what’s in store for the future of conservation in these fields.

Episode 1: Dancing Birds (01:15:47)
What do the worlds of bird courtship and Cambodian classical dance have in common? Today, we are joined by Ayala Berger, a PhD candidate in the Department of Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology at UCR who is researching hummingbird courtship, and Ryan Boun, a Cambodian dancer. As we explore this cline, we’ll uncover what beauty and complexity mean to both our guests and chat about how song and dance as means for communication have changed and continue to do so over time.
Some examples of Cambodian classical dance suggested by Ryan:
Shan-type Peacock Dance
Stylized Social Dance
A very formalized dance that is sanctioned and has very little personal expression in how the couples move
Courtship displays of Costa’s and Anna’s hummingbirds, the species that Ayala studies:
Costa’s Hummingbird
Anna’s Hummingbird
