Digital Privacy & Protecting Your Data

You might think you have nothing to hide on your devices but everyone does. From bank accounts to passwords to travel plans, protecting your digital privacy is one of the biggest issues we face today. Digital privacy expert Eva Galperin joins host Dr. Samantha Yammine to discuss the importance of protecting your data and how to best do so. Sam also explores recent updates on a nuclear battery that can keep devices charged for years as well as a man who might be the key behind creating a universal antivenom to protect against snakebites.
