UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — The Huck institutes of the Life Sciences has launched a new monthly series of short video essays to feature highly innovative Penn State researchers who are pushing boundaries and forging new pathways in their respective fields. “Life From All Angles” tells the stories of these risk-takers in a condensed, easy to digest, 5-minute format.

Each of the videos accompanies a 45-minute livestreamed episode of the Huck Institutes’ Symbiotic Podcast. These episodes, streamed at noon on the last Thursday of each month, include live question-and answer sessions with the researchers featured in the “Life from All Angles” videos.

All episodes will be available on the Huck Institutes YouTube channel.
