Trace Material is a podcast that explores the intersection of our lives and the lives of the materials that surround us, one material at a time. This season, the podcast team at Healthy Materials Lab is investigating fungi!

Why have mushrooms been so understudied? And what potentials have been overlooked? We turned to William Padilla-Brown to find out in this episode of Trace Material. He’s spent over a decade researching mushrooms as a citizen scientist, harnessing their potential as food and medicine, and strengthening his community.

Listen to this episode, "The Citizen Scientist," from Trace Material: Fungi Futures wherever you get your podcasts.
