Hello everybody! In todays episode, we dive into the science behind genetically modified cordyceps. After falling down yet ANOTHER TikTok rabbit hole, I decided to research just how likely it would be for the popular TV show, The Last Of Us, to become a reality. We're going to discuss what cordyceps are, how they work, if they're a threat to humans, if they'll ever become a threat to humans and should we be worried about people trying to genetically modify them in the first place? There is a lot to unpack so let's discuss!
