About this episode

Science journalist Izzie Clarke explores this question in the latest podcast from Scientific American Custom Media. She sat down with Chris Cramer, chief research officer and interim president for the leading safety science organization UL Research Institutes.

This podcast was produced for UL Research Institutes by Scientific American Custom Media, a division separate from the magazine’s board of editors.
