"Forever chemicals" | Aglaia Tcidulko

Aglaia is an MSc student in Humboldt Universität and an ambassador and humble servant of biology from any possible perspective. Young scientist, polar guide, popularizer, and lecturer.

Synopsis:
We cheer for progress. We celebrate every new tech breakthrough and factory upgrade. But what if some of these “advances” came at a hidden cost… Our own lifespans?
Spoiler: progress is good, but not always immediate. In this lecture on forever chemicals, Aglaia reveals which technologies quietly shrank human life expectancy and why we didn’t see it coming.
