Science Weekly podcast: The human era, and war without tears Geologist Jan Zalasiewicz from the University of Leicester explains his idea that humans may have changed the planet so much since the industrial revolution we've started a whole new geological era.Science writer Carl Zimmer asks this week's Hannaford question: the question he would most like answered by science.We also hear from the author of Mind Wars, philosopher Jonathan Moreno at the University of Pennsylvania about the ethical implications of using neuroscience in security activities and military research. Could waterboarding be replaced with an injection of a neurochemical like oxytocin in interrogations? What would it mean if soldiers were to have their ability to form emotional memories blocked before going into battle to minimise the psychological after-effects of combat? How do you weigh the potential to prevent a lifetime of post-traumatic stress in former soldiers against the possibility of a generation of veterans returning home without any guilt or regrets about what they might have done?Alok is joined by Guardian science correspondent Ian Sample to discuss the week's news stories including funding cuts to science research in the UK - affecting in particular British researchers' contribution to international astronomy and particle physics projects - and an unexpected problem with immune rejection in potential stem cell therapiesSubscribe for free via iTunes to ensure every episode gets delivered.

Science Weekly podcast: Animal behaviour, and the LHC breaks new records Jonathan Balcombe, a former animal behaviour researcher, discusses animal emotions and whether they have virtue. His new book Second Nature – The Inner Lives Of Animals is out now. The Large Hadron Collider is finally up to speed, reaching a record energy level last week. Tom Whyntie from Imperial College London, who works at Cern in Geneva, tells us why this is a significant moment in particle physics. Tom's about to start studying the data the LHC is churning out for his PhD. Peter Hadfield is attempting to debunk science myths through YouTube. His channel, potholer54, has 28,000 subscribers and his films have been watched 2.5m times. He says honesty is the best policy. Nell Boase is your host while Alok is away.
